Low Carb Strawberry Cinnamon Scones
Over the weekend we headed over to The Fresh Market and grabbed some strawberries since they were on sale. I don’t know about you, but Strawberries are my favorite berry by far! Of course strawberries are super good by themselves, but I wanted to make something with them. 🙂
Cue, these scones! Scones have always fascinated me since trying one at a local coffee shop a couple years ago. The texture is different and they’re basically defined as a small, lightly sweetened, biscuit like cake.
There are many kinds of scones.. blueberry, lemon, raisin, and cherry. Or, even savory such as ham and cheese, smoked salmon and dill, sun-dried tomato, and more! YUM! The possibilities are endless, I’m telling ya. These strawberry cinnamon scones are perfect for a weekend breakfast or brunch with, you guessed it, a nice hot cup of coffee, tea, or cocoa.
STRAWBERRY CINNAMON
I knew strawberries would give these scones a perfect texture and leave it a little more moist than a traditional scone, which is what I wanted. It was perfect! Ok but why cinnamon? Well, why not? Kidding! If a strawberry was to marry a spice, that spice would be cinnamon. The fresh strawberries and the cinnamon absolutely compliment each other and I have found that neither overpowers the other. Just don’t over do the cinnamon and you’ll be more than okay.
How To Make Low Carb Strawberry Cinnamon Scones
These were so easy to put together from beginning to end.
- Whisk together all dry ingredients.
- Then in a separate bowl, you will melt the coconut oil and mix together the rest of the wet ingredients. Do NOT blend!
- You’ll see the dry and wet ingredients finally combined. Afterwards, fold in the strawberries.
- Finally, form the scones and drop them onto your parchment-lined baking sheet. The dough should be divided into 8 large clumps and formed into a triangular shape, about 3/4″ inches tall.
Ta-daa!
Scone Glaze
The glaze for these scones couldn’t have been more amazing! This glaze is the easiest ever to make and the scone looked and tasted poppin‘. With a spatula, all I did was mix together confectioners sweetener (we used this), cinnamon, nutmeg, and unsweetened almond milk. Its enough to drizzle 8 scones and it is ohhhh sooo tasty!
