Raspberry - Lavender Scones

First preheat oven to 400 and if you are using a baking stone allow for heating or use a parchment lined baking sheet.

Ingredients

2 cups Einkorn Flour, or choice (not packed bounced down)*

1 cup Almond Flour

1 Tbsp. Baking Powder

1/4 - 1/3 cup coconut sugar *

2 scoops of Multi-Collagen (opt)

3/4 half and half with a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar or lemon juice.*

1 egg slightly beaten (I mix into milk just before adding to flour.)

1 - 1 1/2  cup fresh raspberries

1 - 2 Tbsp. of lavender buds or fresh chopped rosemary*

With wire whip mix first four ingredients together or sift. Measure out your milk and add vinegar or lemon to set up, set aside until ready to use.

With a pastry cutter - cut into flour mixture  -

1 stick of butter that is cold and cubed or sliced.

Cut butter in until to resembles crumbs, add your herbs toss into dry mix then add raspberries and fold into mix.


Make a well and add milk and vinegar mix with egg - then lightly incorporate forming dough. I use a plastic rice spoon that is untextured or large serving spoon and go around the outer part of bowl pulling in towards center until all mixed, Use a lighter hand not as mixing bread. The dough will be softer than roll out dough like for cookies.  You can cut them in triangles or scoop out onto a parchment lined sheet or right on a baking stone. Bake for 18 - 22 minutes depending on you oven and elevation.  Enjoy

* Flour sometimes we use to much in baking and your goodies are to heavy or tough, you can spoon four into a dry cup and level it with the back of a knife. 

* For the milk you can use whole cream or buttermilk or a mix of whole cream and whole milk or just whole milk.  I think if you like using buttermilk it is good when you can find one with full fat or butter cultures, I like using whole milk or half and half with either lemon or Bragg vinegar.

* Coconut sugar is taste more light brown sugar I've used both I just like the flavor. You can use refined if you prefer or whatever sweetener you choose you really don't need much and with recipe if you use maple syrup or honey allow for extra moisture.
