Traditional scones are loaded with refined white flour and sugar, leading to rapid blood glucose spikes. Our recipe is built on four pillars of intelligent substitution:
Almond & Coconut Flour Base: We use super-fine almond flour and a touch of coconut flour to create a tender, moist crumb that’s naturally low-carb and high in protein and fiber. This combination dramatically reduces the net carbs and provides a longer-lasting energy release.
Zero-Glycemic Sweetener: Allulose or Monk Fruit Sweetener (granular, 1:1 sugar substitute) provides the perfect sweetness without affecting blood sugar levels. It also caramelizes and behaves like sugar in baking.
Healthy Fats for Stable Energy: Using cold butter and incorporating healthy fats from almond flour ensures a slow digestion process, preventing sharp glucose rises and promoting satiety.
Natural, Low-Glycemic Flavor: We use fresh orange zest and unsweetened dried cranberries (or fresh/frozen). The zest provides intense aroma without sugar, and we carefully select cranberries with no added juice or sugar.
