Keto Blueberry Scones

Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Servings 8 scones

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups Almond flour blanched and finely ground
  • ¼ cup Coconut flour
  • 4 oz Cream cheese, softened
  • 4 tablespoons Butter, cold and cubed
  • 3 large Eggs
  • cup Erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
  • 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt
  • 1.5 cups Fresh blueberries or frozen
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon zest

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, sweetener, baking powder, salt, and lemon zest.
  • In another bowl, beat 2 eggs with softened cream cheese and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Add cubed cold butter to the dry mixture and use a pastry cutter or fork to work it in until resembling coarse breadcrumbs.
  • Gently fold the egg-cream cheese mixture into the flour mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Carefully fold fresh blueberries into the dough, being gentle to avoid crushing them.
  • Transfer dough to parchment paper and gently press into an 8-inch circle about 1 inch thick. Cut into 8 wedges.
  • Beat the remaining egg and brush lightly over each scone.
  • Bake for 18–22 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Keep all ingredients cold for the flakiest texture. Freeze unbaked scones for up to 3 months.
