Ingredients
Gather these simple ingredients to make about 8 medium-sized scones:
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/3 cup granulated erythritol
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup chopped rhubarb (about 2 stalks)
- 1/3 cup cold butter, cubed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla powder
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
Preheat oven to 350F (175C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, baking powder, and salt. Add cold butter cubes and use a pastry cutter or fingers to work the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 2: Add Wet Ingredients
In a small bowl, whisk eggs, vanilla powder, and cream. Pour into the flour mixture and stir until just combined. The dough will be slightly sticky. Gently fold in chopped rhubarb.
Step 3: Shape and Bake
Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface (use more coconut flour). Pat into a 1-inch thick circle. Cut into 8 wedges and transfer to baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
Tips and Tricks
For best results: use cold butter straight from the fridge, don’t overmix the dough, and let scones cool before serving. These pair wonderfully with clotted cream or sugar-free jam. Try them alongside our buttercream cookies for a delightful tea party spread.
