Lemon Blueberry Scones

Ingredients

Dry ingredients

  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cardamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 3/4 cups coconut flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 c cold butter
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 3-4 tablespoons Splenda / Stevia

Wet ingredients

  • 3/4 cup cream
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar
  • 1 cup frozen blueberries

Instructions

  • Mix the dry ingredients, cutting in the butter in small chunks. Blend in a food processor or crumble with your fingers until the butter is in pea sized chunks.
  • Whisk all the wet ingredients together. (Yup, including the vinegar! What you're making is low carb buttermilk!)
  • Add about 3/4 of the wet mix to the dry and mix with a spatula, adding the remaining 1/4 if its too dry. I used about 4/5 of a cup.
  • Fold in the frozen blueberries.
  • I just grabbed small handfuls and gently pressed the batter together, forming a ball. I got a dozen balls, flattening them slightly with a gentle push on the tops.
  • Bake for 17-22 minutes at 400F.

Notes

I like using frozen vs. fresh because they hold their shape better while cooking.
