kcal: 220 per serving (1 scone)

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated erythritol or your preferred keto-friendly sweetener
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

  8. Cut the dough into 8 equal wedges and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  9. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown and cooked through.
  10. Allow the scones to cool for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Note: Drizzle with a keto-friendly glaze made with powdered erythritol and lemon juice for extra flavor.
