A fruity breakfast item is high in protein made from almond flour. Therefore, other ways to elevate scone is to add lemon zest or citrus zest. Of course, zest amplifies baked goods by not changing the composition of the recipe.

3 eggs whites

1 tsp baking powder

2 tbsp coconut oil (melted)

Subsequently, in another bowl add egg whites and whisk with electric blender blend until it foams up.
Finally, fold in the egg whites into the flour mixture.
Hence scoop the batter onto the baking tray. and bake for 10 minutes or longer with a toothpick.

Fluffy Scone

To make a fluffy scone, it is not necessary to add all the liquids. Furthermore, liquids should help to keep the batter together. Thus, if you prefer tender and moist baked goods, do use brown sugar in the baked goods. To prevent build-up, place a paper towel in the container that holds the scone to remove moisture. Also, if you cannot have butter and wants to avoid purchasing vegan butter, do try avocado, mashed banana, nut butter, or pumpkin puree. There are natural health alternatives.

Do try high protein scone. If you enjoy gluten-free or vegan dishes, do try vegan lentil soup. I would love to try more vegan gluten-free dishes like dark chocolate quinoa bowl.
