Besides being gluten-free, this coconut flour scones recipe produces flaky, slightly sweet, coconut-flavoured scones. These biscuits are excellent for a snack or an easy breakfast with their golden edges. Enjoy the same day you bake them for the best results!
To a food processor add the coconut flour, sugar, tapioca starch, coconut oil, baking powder, and salt. Pulse until the ingredients combine to a crumbly mixture.
Alternatively, you could use a pastry blender or fork to cut the solid coconut oil into the dry ingredients.
To a large bowl add the eggs, plant milk, vanilla extract and whisk to combine.
With a spatula or wooden spoon fold the dry mix into the wet ingredients to form a thick batter.
If the batter is not thick enough, add some coconut flour until the batter is thick and moldable (give the coconut flour at least 3 minutes to absorb all of the liquid).
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and place the batter on the parchment paper.
Using your hands mold the batter into a circular shape of about 8-inches in diameter and 1-inch thick.
Place the tray with the batter in the freezer to firm up. Freeze for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 400° F.
Remove scone dough from the freezer and cut into 8 wedges. Separate the wedges so they will bake as separate slices.
Bake for 20 minutes or until the edges are golden and the tops are firm.
Place the coconut flour scones to a wire rack to cool before serving.
Notes
For a simple glaze to drizzle over the coconut flour scones, stir together ½ cup of powdered sugar/sweetener with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice/water/milk until smooth
