• 2 1/2 cups blanched almond flour
• 1/2 tsp sea salt
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/3 cup coconut oil
• 1/4 cup raw honey
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup coarsely chopped dark chocolate (I chopped E. Guittard 72% cacao chocolate wafers.)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, combine almond flour, salt, and baking soda. In another bowl, whisk together coconut oil, honey, eggs, and vanilla.

Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon until well combined. Fold in chocolate.

Drop batter in scant 1/4 cupfuls (I used a large cookie scoop), two inches apart on the parchment-lined baking sheets.

Bake for 12-17 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.

Let the scones cool for 30 minutes on the baking sheets.

Serve with a cup of tea or coffee for a special treat. Or share with your children, if you must…
