What’s better than starting your weekend with Low Carb and Keto Blueberry Scones that are topped with a delicious Blueberry mascarpone cream? The Keto Scone dough is made from almond flour and coconut flour and the sweetness comes from powdered erythritol. Each Keto Blueberry Scone with Blueberry Cream contains on average 4.9 grams of carbs.

These Keto Scones with Blueberries are not only great as breakfast or brunch but are also perfect to serve with a cup of tea.

They are surprisingly easy to make in just 30 minutes. The coconut flour gives the scones some character…and the low carb cream with fresh blueberries always put a smile on my face.

The scones are very tasty with the Blueberry mascarpone cream and fresh blueberries. However, if you want to cut the carbs a bit more, then eat these lovely scones without cream.

Where do scones come from?

A scone is a kind of quick bread that has a British origin. It is normally made from leavened barley flour or oatmeal. It is then rolled into a round shape and cut into triangles before baking them on a griddle.

The first scones were baked in cast iron pans and were hung in the kitchen fires of rural England and Wales. Scones became an important part of British tea time. They are served hot and buttered.

Step by Step Instructions Keto Scones

Now we will give the step-by-step instructions to make these Keto Scones with Blueberries and Cream.

1. Prepare the Scone Dough

First of all, line the cake tin with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius / 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Secondly, melt the coconut oil and let it cool down a bit. Measure the powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, and almond milk.

Pour the vanilla extract into a mixing bowl and add the almond milk, egg, coconut oil, and powdered erythritol. Give it a good short whisk to combine the ingredients.

Combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder and salt in a separate bowl. You can sift the flour to ensure there are no lumps in the mixture.

Then, fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture until a dough forms. The keto dough shouldn’t be crumbly, but also not very wet.

Lastly, add the fresh blueberries to the dough.

2. Bake the Keto Scones in the oven

Place the Keto Scone Dough into a cake tin. The dough should be about 2 cm / 0.8 inch thick. The dough might not cover the entire cake form.

Cut the dough into 8 slices. Subsequently, with a spatula, spread them out a bit. Be careful because the dough is very fragile.

Place the Low Carb Blueberry Scones in the oven. Bake the scones for about 20 minutes in the oven until they are golden brown.

Cool the Keto Blueberry Scones immediately by removing the parchment paper with the scones carefully from the cake tin bottom.

IMPORTANT: let the blueberry scones cool down completely without touching them, otherwise they will break. Only when they are completely cooled down, you can pick them up.

3. Make the Low Carb Blueberry Cream

While the low-carb scones with blueberries are cooling down, we can make the Blueberry Cream.

Divide the fresh blueberries in two. Smash half of the blueberries with a fork.

Place the mascarpone into a mixing bowl and stir or whisk the cheese until more fluid.

Whip the heavy whipping cream together with the powdered erythritol and vanilla extract until stiff.

Fold the whipping cream into the bowl with the mascarpone. Pour the smashed blueberries and lemon zest into the cream.

4. Serve the Keto Blueberry Scones with the Cream

Finally, we can eat our delicious low-carb scones!

Scoop a spoon of Blueberry Cream on top of the scones. Afterward, decorate the scones with fresh blueberries.

Serve the Keto Blueberry Scones with a nice cup of tea or coffee.

You can easily freeze the scones, simply place them in a freezer bag. Take them out of the freezer and let them reach room temperature before reheating them in the oven at 180 degrees Celsius / 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Summing up, this keto scone recipe yields 8 scones. One scone with cream contains on average 4.9 grams of carbs, 5.8 grams of protein, and 24.7 grams of fat.

Enjoy!
