Ingredients
- 2½ cups (about 250 grams) oat flour (oats pulverized into flour — you can process rolled oats in your blender)
- 1½ teaspoons baking powder
- ½ cup (about 100 grams) monk fruit sweetener or any sweetener of choice (¼ cup maple syrup (60 ml) would work too)
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 1 cup (about 150 grams) fresh or frozen blueberries (I use frozen)
- 3 tablespoons almond butter
- ⅓ cup (about 85 grams) applesauce
- ⅔ cup (160 ml) unsweetened plant milk, preferably soy milk (high in protein), plus 2 tablespoons for glazing
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary leaves
- 1 tablespoon ground flax seeds
How to make our Blueberry Rosemary Oat Scones recipe
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190ºC).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Mix flour, baking powder, monk fruit sweetener, and lemon zest in a large bowl, then add the blueberries and toss lightly until they’re coated in the mixture.
Add EVOO, apple sauce, and the milk.
Mix lightly using a spatula until the mixture comes together, adding a touch more milk or flour as needed to form a soft, sticky dough. Be careful not to mix too much.
Transfer the dough onto a lightly-floured surface (e.g. clean kitchen counter) and pat into a circle, one inch thick.
Cut into eight triangles and transfer to the baking sheet.
Brush the scones with a light dash of plant-based milk and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until golden.
Let the scones cool, then serve!
