Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1-¼ cups tiger nut flour sift if it's super clumpy or break up any clumps with the back of a spoon
  • ½ cup arrowroot + 1 Tablespoon extra on which to pat down and form the dough
  • ¼ cup coconut cream warm slightly if it's hard
  • ¼ cup coconut oil melted and cooled
  • 3 Tablespoons tapioca flour
  • 2 Tablespoons maple syrup room temperature
  • 1 Tablespoon gelatin <-- This brand is best. Use code BEAUTIFUL10 for 10% off your entire purchase at checkout.
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda sifted
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 cup bacon cooked and chopped small, or great to use Canadian bacon, too
  • 1/3 cup green onions' greens (the green part only), chopped small, or fine to use chives

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325° Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Stir together all of the dry ingredients in one big mixing bowl: tiger nut flour, arrowroot, tapioca flour, gelatin, baking soda and sea salt.

  • Add in the coconut cream, melted (slightly cooled) fat, liquid sweetener and add-ins: bacon and green onions.
  • Mix the dough with hand held beaters on low speed (or use an upright mixer if you prefer) until all of the ingredients are equally incorporated. (You can also mix the dough by hand, but it'll be a bit more of a workout.)

  • Turn the dough out onto a surface dusted with 1 Tablespoon arrowroot powder. Press and form it into a nice disc shape, about 1"+ tall and 8 or so inches in diameter. Cut into 6 equal wedges (cut straight down on the dough with a long sharp knife that's dusted with arrowroot).
  • Transfer to parchment lined baking sheet, spacing the scones apart, as shown in the photo below. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown and bursting/cracked in places.
  • Cool at least 10 minutes on cookie sheet before transferring to cooling rack to finish cooling. Serve.
