strawberry scones


I adapted a raw scone recipe here. Last Sunday we got an awful amount of snow so I decided it would be best to stay inside all day and bake things, these scones being one of them. They might be one of my new favorite things to bake on Sundays.

ingredients:
- 1 cup almond flour {I made my own by grinding almonds in a food processor}
- 1 cup whole wheat pastry flower
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 organic eggs
- 1/4 cup agave nectar
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh strawberries
- 1/4 cup dried blueberries {or other dried fruit}
- 1/3 cup shredded coconut

instructions:
- preheat oven to 350*.
- line baking sheet with parchment paper
- in a small bowl, whisk eggs until combined and set aside
- in a large bowl, whisk the almond flour, whole wheat pastry flower, salt, and baking soda
- add the diced strawberries and dried fruit
- make a well in the center of your dry ingredients
- add the wet ingredients and with a rubber spatula, mix until thouroughly combined
- make a large mound of the dough in the center of the baking sheet
- bake about 20 minutes or until golden on top - make sure center is fully cooked

{note: these are best served warm with a little bit of honey, agave, peanut butter, or jam on the side}

- Enjoy! -

  1. The last time I made scones, they fell apart! These look like they are worth another shot ;)
