1 1/2 cups cassava flour, 1 1/2 cups almond flour, 5 tbsp monk fruit sweetener, 1 tbsp baking powder, 1 tbsp fresh lime zest, 1/4 tsp pink salt
Fourth, use a pastry knife to cut in the coconut oil until it resembles small pea-sized bits of coconut oil.
1/2 cup coconut oil
Finally, stir in the chopped white chocolate.
5 oz. white chocolate bar (finely chopped)
Make a well in the flour and pour in the lime juice and one cup plus 2 tbsp of unsweetened coconut milk.
3 tbsp fresh squeezed key lime juice, 1+ 3 cup + tbsp unsweetened coconut milk
Working gently with your hands, combine and press into a dough.
(In the event the dough doesn't come together, add one tablespoon at a time to the dough.)
Once combined, press into a disc.
Cut the disc into two.
Form another disc and lightly press down until it is about 6 inches wide.
Cut each disc into 8 pieces.
Next, add the scones to the prepared baking sheet.
Using a pastry brush, brush the tops with the remaining tablespoon of coconut milk.
Place the scones into the oven to bake for 20 - 25 minutes until lightly browned.
Turn the scones around halfway through to get evenly browned.
