The strawberries in these scones make them so moist and delicious. These would be perfect for a lovely brunch or an afternoon tea break.
An easy way to form these scones is to drop them onto your parchment-lined baking sheet in eight large clumps a few inches apart and then form them into triangle shapes about 3/4″ tall. If you prefer your scones to be more uniform in shape you can form the dough into a large circle and cut into 8 pieces. I have step-by-step pictures of this on my Snickerdoodle Scone post.

They sound great! Have you made them with THM baking mix?
I haven’t made it with the baking mix. We’re needing to stay away from oats now, so I probably won’t be trying it. You could try substituting the flours with 2 cups of the baking mix. If the mix seems too wet you could add a little more.
Have you made these with blueberries?
Hi Angela, yes, I have made them with blueberries. Here is the link to that post. With the blueberries the scones aren’t quite as moist, but they are still delicious. 🙂 https://mamashire.com/blueberry-vanilla-scones-gluten-free/
Thank you, thank you, I’ve been missing scones! I don’t have access to THM products where I live and haven’t yet found erythritol. Would xylitol+stevia be OK? Same proportion for xylitol as erythritol?
Hi Sophie, Xylitol would work fine. You probably wouldn’t even need the stevia. I always used to use xylitol and loved baking with it, but it started giving me bad headaches so I had to stop.
Did you use the Gentle Sweet or Super Sweet Blend?
Hi Stephanie, I use the homemade sweetener blend that is erythritol and stevia. I believe it is most like the super sweet blend. I tend to like things sweet, so you may need to adjust the amount of sweetener to your taste.
I ended up using 1/4 cup Super Sweet Blend and it was still a little too sweet, but they were delicious!!!! Thank you! My husband has asked me to make them again today for Father’s Day!
So glad you liked them! I usually have my treats on the sweet side, so I understand.
How many of these make a serving?
Hi Tina, I think one would be an appropriate serving, maybe one and a half.
Do you think butter could be used instead of coconut oil? Still trying to figure out a good substitute for coconut flour due to my coconut allergy. If anyone has suggestions I would love to hear them! Otherwise it looks amazing and my husband and kid would love them!
Hi Emmalyn, If dairy doesn’t bother you then yes, go ahead and use butter. You could leave out the coconut flour. It will change the texture some, but it would still be good.
Do you store these in refrigerator? I’m eating one and it’s warm and delicious! Thank you for the recipe!
Hi Bethany,
They are okay left out for a couple of days.
Do you happen to have calorie count and macro nutrient count? Thanks.
Hi Sara, I don’t right now, but that is something I will be adding to my posts very soon!
Thank you for a fabulous recipe! I made these yesterday to take to a friend’s farewell party. As I was driving there I thought to myself, “What was I thinking making a new-to-me recipe to take to a party of a British friend who is about to move back to England?!?” However, everyone who tried one said they loved them! I doubled the recipe and ended up with 26 scones altogether. According to Carb Manager, not dding in the sweeteners (because I used Swerve and 2 packets of Splenda Naturals (stevia) which both say they have 0 carbs because they do NOT cause an insulin response), each of my scones came out to 3 net grams of carbs. This makes me really happy because I’m currently eating my second one of the day! Thanks again!
That’s so wonderful! I’m glad that they were loved!
These were superb! I used Swerve, but since I don’t like anything too sweet, I only used a 1/3 a cup, and added a 1/4 t of cinnamon. The recipe delivered 8 perfect scones with a moist, firm bite. We had them for supper with Turkey bacon and Harvarti Dill scrambled eggs. Thank you!!
