KETO CRANBERRY ORANGE SCONES INGREDIENTS

The ingredients in these very delicious keto cranberry scones can all be found in the supermarket. I will say this is the first time I have tried cranberries this way and to say I am a fan is an understatement. The cranberries really make this low carb scone recipe shine. They are a little tart and a little sweet and paired with the orange is a perfect food marriage.

Here is what you will need. Surprisingly this a dairy free keto scone recipe. No butter, no cream or cheese that you find in lots of keto scone recipes.

2 cups almond flour or meal – I use blanched almond meal
1/3 cup erythritol
1/2 teaspoon baking powder – forever a fan of Bobs Red Mill
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 cup coconut oil melted
2 tablespoons orange zest
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg
1/2 cup cranberries fresh or frozen – I use frozen (from Woolworths) Have you tried our super tasty Low Carb Cranberry Sauce?

HOW TO MAKE LOW CARB SCONES

The cranberry orange scones are pretty simple to make. I have included Maya’s original method, but also a Thermomix Keto Scone method as well for our thermie fans.

CONVENTIONAL METHOD

Preheat the oven to 170℃ (350°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, erythritol, baking powder, and sea salt.

In a small bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, orange zest, vanilla, and egg.

Stir the wet mixture into the almond flour mixture, pressing with a spoon or spatula, until a uniform dough forms. (The dough should be pliable and dense, but not crumbly; add a little more coconut oil, a teaspoon at a time, if it’s very dry.)

Stir and press the cranberries into the dough.

Place the dough onto the lined pan and form a disc shape, about 2-3 cm thick and 15 -18 cm in diameter. Cut into 8 wedges, like a pie or pizza. Move the pieces about 2-3 cm apart to form the scones.

Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, until golden.
Cool keto cranberry orange scones completely on the pan to firm up. (Scones will fall apart if you move them before cooling.)
