Servings 8

Ingredients
  

  • 150 grams (1 ½ cups) oat flour
  • 30 grams (¼ cup) coconut flour
  • 45 grams (3 tablespoons) sugar plus more for sprinkling
  • Zest from 1 orange
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cardamom
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons butter or coconut oil chilled and cut into small pieces
  • ½ cup ice water

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375° Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Add the oat flour, coconut flour, sugar, orange zest, baking powder, cardamom, and salt into a food processor. Pulse to combine.
  • Add the butter to the food processor and pulse until its incorporated.
  • Drizzle in the ice water slowly while pulsing the food processor until the dough begins to look a bit like damp sand. It should hold together when pinched. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Transfer the dough onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Working quickly, shape the dough into a disk measuring about 6 inches across and 1 inch thick.
  • Cut dough into 8 even wedges and space each wedge so they’re about 2 inches apart. Sprinkle the tops with a bit of sugar.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the edges are just starting to turn golden and they feel firm to the touch.
  • Let scones cool for a couple of minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  • Store leftover scones in an airtight container at room temperature for a couple of days, in the fridge for up to a week, or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
