SCONES

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, Swerve, lemon zest, baking powder and salt. Stir in eggs, butter, and lemon juice until dough comes together. Gently fold in the blueberries.

Step 3
Turn dough out onto prepared baking sheet and gently pat into a low, flat rectangle, about 10 by 5 inches. Cut into 6 even squares, then cut each square diagonally into 2 triangles.

Step 4

Use a knife or offset spatula to gently lift each scone and scatter around baking sheet. Bake 20 to 25 minutes, until set and edges are golden. Let cool on pan.

GLAZE

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk confectioner’s Swerve and lemon juice together until smooth. Drizzle over cooled scones.
