Ingredients
- 2 cups / 225g almond flour
- ⅓ cup / 60g erythritol
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- ¼ cup / 50g coconut oil melted
- 2 tablespoon orange zest
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- ½ cup / 55g cranberries fresh or frozen
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 Celsius / 350 Fahrenheit.
- Combine the dry ingredients - almond flour, erythritol, baking powder and salt - in a bowl.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the melted coconut oil, orange zest, vanilla and egg. Stir into the dry ingredients until a dough forms.
- Last, stir the cranberries into the dough.
- Form a ball and place onto a baking pan lined with parchment paper. Flatten into a disc shape, about 1 inch thick and 6 inches in diameter. Cut into 8 wedges and move the pieces about 1 inch apart.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes until golden. Let cool completely in the pan - these scones are fragile when hot but they firm up as they cool down.
