We’ve all been there. It’s a weekday morning and you’re waiting in line for a hot cup of coffee to start your day. As you wait for your turn to order you can’t help but stare at the delicious scones taunting you with their high carb content. But being on a low carb diet you know better, and you leave with only your coffee, wishing you could have left with that scrumptious scone as well. With my Keto Scones, you don’t have to ever go scone-less again. They’re wonderfully sweet, tangy, and unbelievably low carb. It can be hard to find a low carb grab-and-go breakfast option. It seems like the only real option is a sugary pastry or doughnut that’s full of carbs when you need a quick breakfast. That’s why I’ve set out to make these delicious Keto Scones every bit as good as the ones you’d get from your local fancy coffee house without all of carbs!
How To Make Keto Scones
Can You Substitute Almond Flour For All Purpose Flour?
Yes. And that’s exactly what I did for this keto scone recipe. There are a couple of things you should know before you choose to use it in any other recipe, though.
How Do I Get My Scones To Rise And Be Fluffy?
Just as you would in any other traditional baking recipe, you will rely on the baking powder and the egg to help your Keto Scone batter rise.
Do These Almond Flour Scones Actually Taste Like Scones?
I fully acknowledge that these do not LOOK like the scones we typically see. But guess what? They taste just like them. I would suggest that you let them cool completely before you try them. Leave them out uncovered, so they dry out a bit as they cool. Perfect, low carb, keto scones.
Why Is Almond Flour OK On A Keto Diet?
Almond flour is ok on a Keto diet because it is naturally low in carbohydrates. The fat and protein macros tend to fall in line with a traditional low carb lifestyle as well. Not only is it a great food choice when you’re eating low carb, it also tastes delicious and has a similar texture to all purpose flour.
