this is what the scones look like...
Easy to make and look great but very dry to eat. Would need a lot of moist filling to make paletable.I think there are better ways to spend 180 calories on this diet.
I made these today and found I had to add extra coconut flour as the mixture was far to wet, then when cooked they looked lovely, but we found them very dry.
I will have to find something with less calories in to enjoy as a little something different to eat.
I made the scones to the recipe, had to add more coconut flour as the mixture was too loose, got to what i considered stiff enough but when it went into the oven I ended up with a large cheesy omelette, any idea’s

I made these exactly to the recipe and thought they were delicious. The mixture was loose so I just spooned dollops of it onto baking paper and they turned out fine. However, they have a lot of calories for such a small snack.
Hi guys…yes you have to put them on baking paper…and I found the mix was very ‘wet’ but that must be how it is supposed to be…came out of the oven really yummy…smelt great too…would be great if you had kids who could eat the rest up…I froze them in individual snappy bags…weren’t great but edible next day…
We tried this recipe, very dry to eat at first but improved after a couple of day. Still need to find a recipe with coconut flour that isn’t dry.
I made these on Sunday but thought them disgusting. What a waste of all those eggs and all that cheese. All in the bin. Too dry and quite bitter.
Made some scones yesterday & they’re fantastic – even retaining their freshness (unlike traditional scones which go stale quickly).
My scones (which look just like the ones in the pic) were delishiously moist with a lovely cheesy flavour & hint of coconut which is subtle.
Recommend you try them. 😋
We baked some of these up and yes, they are uber dry although full of flavour but as I often skip the breakfasts and embellish my lunches with the breakfast calories these make a nice addition for variety in texture (almost breadlike(ish)!)
I particularly like them with a little butter and the no carbs ploughmans.
How did you find the recipe?
