Enjoy the sweet and tart flavors of Cranberry and Date Scones. These scones, made with teff flour, are naturally gluten-free and filled with sweet dates and tart cranberries. Teff provides essential amino acids and 7 grams of protein per serving, making these scones a nutritious and delicious treat. The nutty flavor of teff complements the cranberries and dates, creating a perfect snack for any time of day.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly oil a cookie sheet with 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil, and set aside.
Whisk the egg in a large mixing bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and stir briefly to form a moist dough.
Sprinkle 2 tablespoons teff flour on a pastry board, roll out the dough about 1 ½ inch thick into a round pie-like shape. Slice into 8 wedges.
Bake on a cookie sheet for 20 minutes, or until bottom of the scones are golden brown. Let cool before eating.
