These grain-free blueberry lemon scones have become one of my favorite treats. They remind me of the blueberry scones that I used to get at Starbucks in my SB addiction days.

A hazelnut latte and a blueberry scone. Breakfast of champions, right? 😉

Wrong!

I am so glad those days are behind me, but I must say that I do still remember the deliciousness of those scones.

Thankfully my sweet friend Kelly from The Nourishing Home saved me with her new cookbook, Everyday Grain-Free Baking.

She has knocked it out of the park with this book. The book features pretty much every recipe you could imagine needing on a grain-free diet.

Pair these scones with a cup of my caffeine-free, grain-free herbal coffees and you have a delicious, coffee house style snack with none of the guilt and no hefty price tag.

Since I try to keep my sugar intake on the lower side, I don’t often bake sweet treats. But, Kelly’s book is going to be my go-to whenever I need something for a special occasion. There are so many amazing recipes that will please just about everyone, no matter what style of eating they follow.

I wanted to try every single recipe in this book, but since I need to keep my baked treats to a minimum, I settled on trying out two recipes: the Blueberry Lemon Scones and the Nutty Chocolate Chunk Cookies.

I had been wanting to send a batch of treats with my husband to his job, so I figured a big batch of cookies would be just the ticket! He said his team loved them and they were pretty much gone in a snap!

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a food processor, combine the almond flour, baking soda, and salt. Pulse in the cold butter (or palm shortening) until it’s well incorporated. If you don’t have a food processor, use a pastry cutter to cut the butter (or shortening) into the dry ingredients.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, coconut milk, lemon juice, zest, and honey until well combined.
  3. Using a spoon, stir the dry mixture into the wet mixture until thoroughly combined. Then fold in the blueberries. Place dough in the fridge to cool about 10–15 minutes.
  4. Preheat oven to 350°F while the dough is chilling. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside. Sprinkle your work surface with a handful of blanched almond flour. Melt a teaspoon of butter (or coconut oil) for brushing the tops of the scones.
  5. Once the dough is chilled, gather it together in a ball and place floured surface. Shape the dough into a 6x6-inch square, then cut it in half twice to form 4 small squares. Next, cut each of the 4 small squares in half diagonally to form 8 small triangles.
  6. Brush the tops of the scones with melted butter (or coconut oil). Sprinkle tops with a little bit of coconut sugar or maple sugar, if desired.
  7. Using a spatula, gently place each scone onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake about 15–18 minutes, until scones are light golden brown along the edges. Serve warm with your favorite herbal or green tea.

Notes

When purchasing palm products, please make sure you are only buying from a company that sustainably and ethically sources their products. Because the harvesting of palm products has been so destructive to certain parts of the world, like Indonesia, I only source my palm products from Tropical Traditions. They work with small farmers in South America and Africa to ensure their palm products are harvested without harm to the habitat or wildlife.

Learn How to Make Perfect Ice Cream (and Other Frozen Treats) at Home

Ice cream is the quintessential dessert (and, ahem, it would probably go pretty darn great with this recipe!). I mean, I can’t think of a single person that I’ve ever met who doesn’t like ice cream. While not everyone is as passionate about the cold, creamy, sweet concoction as I am, I am betting that if you’re reading this, you probably enjoy a frozen treat of some sort every now and then.

If so, then I have the PERFECT resource for you today.

I am crazy for ice cream, but I find that there are very few commercial ice creams that I can eat. I can’t do dairy, so that scratches a good 75% of them off the list. And the non-dairy options either taste funny, have too much sugar, or have weird gums and additives that my poor gut just doesn’t tolerate.

So, what’s a gal to do?

Master the art of making her own ice cream at home, that’s what!

And create I did and The Splendid Scoop and Other Frozen Treats eBook was born! This is one of my best-selling eBooks because I arm you with everything you need to make your own perfect ice cream (or other frozen treats) at home any time you want. 

And I do it all with real food ingredients, no refined sweeteners, not gums, not stabilizers. No junk here.

Oh, and I also have made the recipes allergen-friendly and even adaptable for stricter healing diets (like the AIP).

So, if you are ready to master the art of making your own ice cream at home, this is the perfect book for you. Don’t let another special occasion or hot day in the summer pass you by watching everyone else enjoying cold treats while you sit on the sideline due to your dietary restrictions.

No more!
