A few years back I came across and article on Babycakes bakery in New York. I have never been there but instantly fell in love. One day i will find my way there. But for now the cookbooks keep me happy =)
This is the easiest scone recipe out there. I switch it up all the time...throw in a banana...no blueberries... well I always have chocolate chips.
Babycakes scones
2 Cups whole spelt flour
1 Tbsp baking powder
1/2 Tsp salt
1/3 Cup coconut oil (melted), more for brushing
1/3 Cup agave nectar, more for brushing (use maple syrup if you don't want to buy a whole bottle or if you don't have any on hand)
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup hot water
1 cup raspberries (I ran out this time...so i used PC decadent chocolate chips-they have no diary)
-Line baking sheet with parchment or silpat.
-In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, Baking powder, and salt. Add the oil, agave, and vanilla and stir together until a thickish/dry batter is formed. Pour in the hot water and mix. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in the chocolate chips.
-Using a muffin scoop, scoop batter onto prepared sheets. lightly brush the tops with oil. Bake for 14 mins.
-Remove from oven and brush lightly with agave nectar.
-Let cool on sheet for 15mins, then transfer to a wire rack.
