Ingredients
  

For the Dough

  • 2 cups Almond Flour the star ingredient that gives these scones their rich, nutty flavor.
  • ¼ cup Coconut Flour helps absorb moisture for a perfectly fluffy texture.
  • ¼ cup Granulated Sugar or Coconut Sugar adds just the right touch of sweetness.
  • 1 tablespoon Baking Powder ensures your scones rise beautifully.
  • ½ teaspoon Salt balances sweetness and enhances flavor.

For the Binding

  • ¼ cup Unsalted Butter cold and cubed, gives moisture and richness.

Optional Add-ins

Instructions
 

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until well-blended.
  • Add cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients and mix until resembling coarse crumbs.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, almond milk, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
  • Pour wet ingredients into the dry mixture and gently stir until just combined. Fold in dried fruit or chocolate chips if using.
  • Turn dough onto a floured surface and shape into a disc about 1-inch thick.
  • Cut the disc into 8 equal wedges and place on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. A toothpick inserted should come out clean.
  • Cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use cold butter for flaky texture. Don't overmix to maintain a tender scone.
