LEMON RICOTTA SCONES

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325F and line a baking sheet with parchment or a silicone liner

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, Swerve, baking powder, salt and lemon zest. Add in the eggs, ricotta, and lemon extract and stir until the dough comes together.

Step 3

Divide the dough in half and pat into two circles, about 5 to 6 inches in diameter, on the prepared baking sheet. Cut each circle into 6 even wedges. Gently lift the wedges with a spatula and spread around the pan a few inches apart.

Step 4

Bake about 25 minutes, until golden brown and just firm to the touch. Remove and let cool.

Step 5

Whisk the powdered Swerve and lemon juice in a small bowl and drizzle over the cooled scones.

Makes 12 scones.
