Blueberry Almond Scones, grain and gluten free

Gluten and Grain Free Blueberry Almond Scones

Scone is the Brittish way of saying biscuit, just like they say biscuit, and we say cookie!  These are really tender and moist and taste a lot like blueberry muffins.

Pre-heat the oven to 325F.

In a mixing bowl with an electric mixer, combine:

1/4 cup coconut sugar
1 packet Truvia type sweetener
2 tablespoons coconut oil

Add while mixing:

1 egg
1/4 cup water

Continue to mix while adding:

1 3/4 cups almond flour
1/2 cup shredded coconut (unsweetened)
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt

Stir in at the last:

1/2 cup blueberries
1/4 cup slivered almonds (optional)

Prepare a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper.  Using a 1/4 cup scoop, drop the dough onto the baking sheet about 2" apart.  Flatten the dough balls slightly, then bake them for about 15 minutes.

Serve warm.  Refrigerate any leftovers and use within a few days.  Enjoy!
