Raisin Walnut Scones (grain free)

I was speaking to a friend yesterday who recently took gluten out of her family’s diet and mentioned how challenging it can be to make foods the kids enjoy.  Though we’re not officially gluten or grain free, most of what I cook is, so I shared with her some recipe ideas.  I also mentioned the scones we had just had for breakfast which are gluten and sugar free, and am posting it here for everyone else to enjoy!  I made four times this recipe for our family of 11, so it’s suitable for a small family as written.

Raisin Walnut Scones

  • 2 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup whole milk yogurt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup raisins
  • 1/4 cup walnuts, chopped

Mix the dry ingredients in one bowl, mix the wet ingredients in the other, and then combine the two mixtures.  Mix.   Add in the raisins and walnuts.  Drop by spoonfuls on a greased or lined baking pan.  Bake at 350 for 15 minutes, and enjoy warm with butter.
