Paleo Vanilla Scones

 

Ok, you’re probably looking at these and thinking it’s a cookie but it’s not, it’s a scone.  When I was was working on my ebook I came up with a version of this recipe.  The flavor is amazing.  Soft, vanilla and sweet.  However I could not for the life of me get it to hold together.  At first I thought it should be a pancake recipe. It crumbled and fell apart. Then I tried waffles, nope.  Next I tried to make it into a cupcake and the consistency was horrible. Finally, I figured it was time to try making Paleo Vanilla Scones. The dough spreads out like a cookie but it has more of a sweet bread consistency and it  is AWESOME with some sort of fruit only jam.

Paleo Vanilla Scone

After I took my first bite of the scone, I realized it needed to cook a tad bit longer.  I put it in the oven for 8 more minutes and it was much darker and crispier than the photo shows.   I’ve addressed this in the recipe but if you pull it out of the oven and it’s too soft in the center for you, put it back in for roughly 5 more minutes.

    These look beautiful! I love when a recipe doesn’t turn out how you initially envisioned it, but it turns into something else, even better, instead. 🙂

      I was seriously surprised that this spread. Most coconut flour creations don’t do this but it tasted awesome and finally stayed in one piece.

    Is it just me or am I missing something? When do you add in the vinegar? I don’t see that in the steps. Thanks!

          I’m not sure hun. Did you check your coconut flour measurement? It is a flour that takes a minute to “set” up as it absorbs the liquid.

    I miss my bread and definitely my scones! I will try these ASAP. Kelly, your recipes are so amazing…but I have to ask…where do you come up with your ideas and how do you transpose (for lack of a better term) from original flour-based to these amazing Paleo recipes???

    You are the reason I keep trying breads/muffins/cookies, etc. I so miss my desserts and you have enough variety in your recipes to keep me stocked forever. Thank you, thank you for taking the time to share your amazing cooking and baking skills with Paleo-neophytes like myself.

    You are a gem and I so appreciate you!!!

      Thank you so much Jennie. Honestly, I just kinda figured it out along the way lol. I did actually create a chapter in my book, Paleo Eats, where I share a big baking tutorial so people can recreate the baked goods recipes they grew up with 🙂

    These are in the oven as we speak. I didn’t have maple syrup so I used honey instead and I added pumpkin spice. Smells amazing, can’t wait to try them. Thanks for the recipe!
