How To Make Keto Raspberry Scones
This means you would have to cut the cold butter into the flour mixture with a pastry cutter until the dough forms pea-sized pieces. Then to this mixture, you would have to add your wet ingredients. After you form the dough you then have to let it rest AND then roll out the dough so you can cut them into scones. Can I tell you I got tired just writing about the typical scone-making process? If that’s me, can you imagine how intimidating that many steps would be for an inexperienced baker? It would especially feel like too many steps if you’re new to keto baking where alternative flours are even trickier to work with. That’s why this is a keto raspberry lemon scone recipe that would just require you to mix, spread, and bake. I knew for certain that if I didn’t get the texture right that these keto scones would just end up being a dry crumbly mess. Something absolutely no one wants.The Sugar-Substitute
When it comes to choosing which sugar-substitute to use for these keto scones, I have several for you to choose from. My go-to choice is Lakanto Monk Fruit because the texture is spot on and since there is barely any aftertaste. It is a monk fruit and erythritol blend. Lakanto Monk Fruit gets its sweetness from antioxidants called mogrosides, instead of fructose or sucrose. It’s why it’s a great all-natural sugar-substitute and has zero calories and zero glycemic index. I’m also partial to Swerve an erythritol blend. Unlike other natural sweeteners like stevia, it has no bitter aftertaste and measures just like sugar. It’s made from ingredients found in select fruits and starchy root vegetables and contains no artificial ingredients, preservatives, or flavors. Swerve is the name brand of Erythritol and it’s unlike other sugar alcohols because it has a 0 % impact on blood sugar. You could also use the stevia and erythritol-based brand Pyure for most of my baked goods. But if using Pyure you will want to use 1/2 the amount called for in this recipe since it’s much sweeter. 1/4 cup is enough if using this sweetener.The Alternative Flours
These keto-friendly scones use a combination of almond and coconut flour. I use them both because each of these flours plays a role in getting the texture as close to real scones as possible.Tag Us
