Cut butter into flour mixture until you have a sand-like texture.
Add the remaining wet ingredients and use a fork to combine the dough until it holds together.

Gluten Free Scone Recipe Notes
Can I make this recipe Paleo? I have not tested a Paleo version of this recipe. I have a feeling cassava flour would work well as a substitute, but cannot guarantee that. If you try it, leave a comment with how it went!
Can I make this recipe vegan? I have not tested an egg substitute for this recipe, but I do use vegan butter and yogurt to keep these scones dairy free.
Can I use fresh raspberries? Frozen berries are preferred for this recipe as fresh berries tend to be too fragile and will get squished when mixing the dough,
Can I use other berries? Yes! Diced strawberries would work and any other frozen berry should be fine.
What if I don’t have powdered sugar? You can make your own! Just blend 1 cup of sugar (I use coconut sugar to keep it refined sugar free) and 1 tbsp. of starch (arrowroot, tapioca, corn) until you have a fine powder.

These gluten free scones are topped off with a delicious cinnamon crumble. They are dairy free, refined sugar free, and nut free. The perfect treat!
I’ll be honest, scones are not my favorite baked good, but sometimes they hit the spot. I really wanted to make gluten free scones that had more oomph to them.

How to Make Gluten Free Cinnamon Crumble Scones
Ingredients:
Scones
tigernut or almond flour
1:1 gluten free flour
tapioca starch
baking powder
salt
coconut sugar
cinnamon
cold (vegan) butter
egg
vanilla extract
coconut yogurt or coconut cream
Crumble topping
1:1 gluten free flour
coconut sugar
cinnamon
(vegan) butter or coconut oil
Process:
Scones are pretty easy to make, the biggest thing is just keeping the dough cold so the butter doesn’t melt before it hits the oven.
You will start by mixing your dry ingredients and sticking them in the freezer for a few minutes so that everything stays cold.
Then you cut in the cold butter and add the remaining wet ingredients, mixing the dough until it comes together.
Form the dough into a disk and pop in the fridge (remember, cold butter!).
While the dough chills, you’ll make the crumble topping and preheat the oven.
When ready, add the topping, cut the scones, and bake!
Gluten Free Scone Substitutions
Gluten free flour: I have not tested a paleo option for these, but cassava flour might work well!
Tigernut flour: I love using tigernut flour because it is nut free and adds a lovely sweet nuttiness that compliments the cinnamon perfectly in this recipe. Almond flour is a great alternative, just make sure it is finely ground.
Butter: I use a vegan butter to keep these scones dairy free, but regular butter is also fine if you tolerate dairy. I have not tried this recipe with coconut oil, but I think it would work fine!
Coconut yogurt: you can use coconut cream instead or Greek yogurt.

These gluten free raspberry crumble muffins are also dairy free and low sugar, with a completely Paleo option. Packed with fresh raspberries and topped with the perfect crumble, they are a must make!
You honestly can’t beat a good muffin, but I find gluten free muffins are often dry. I’m always disappointed when I purchase a gluten free muffin from the bakery, take a bite, and realize I wasted $10. I always think to myself “I can make a way better version at home!” So, I did with these raspberry crumble muffins! These delicious raspberry muffins are moist AND allergy free.
Bakery muffins are also often filled with processed sugar. I love re-creating healthier versions at home to show you that it’s possible to eat healthy, lower sugar baked goods that still taste amazing. These gluten free muffins are refined sugar free and a fraction of the sugar of a store bought version. They can even be made completely grain free for my Paleo friends!

These gluten free blueberry oat muffins are the perfect breakfast muffin- filled with fiber, low sugar, and allergy friendly! These muffins are easy to make and ideal for meal prep.
Over this last year, I developed a new found love for oats in all forms (granola, cookies, muffins, etc), so I had to give some oat muffins a try. I don’t like when muffins have too many oats though. It can’t be overbearing! I love these gluten free oat muffins because there is only a 1/2 cup of oats in this recipe and plenty of blueberries.
These blueberry muffins are also completely refined sugar free. They are made with maple syrup and only a touch of it. These are the perfect, healthy breakfast muffin as they aren’t sugar loaded, but are packed with fiber from the oats and blueberries, and contain a good heaping of cinnamon. If you want your muffins to be a little sweeter, I suggest sprinkling the tops with coconut or brown sugar before baking or just drizzling your muffin with honey when ready to eat.
How to make gluten free blueberry oat muffins
First, you’ll whisk together all the dry ingredients. This includes a mix of 1:1 gluten free flour, tigernut or almond flour, gluten free oats, baking powder, and cinnamon
Second, you’ll beat all the wet ingredients together. This includes eggs, yogurt, maple syrup, oil or butter, and milk. You can use vegan butter and milk to keep this recipe completely dairy free.
Third, you’ll combine the dry with the wet and fold in the blueberries. It’s that simple! Just pop the batter in a muffin tin, bake, cool, eat.
These allergy friendly blueberry muffins are filled with fiber and flavor all while being gluten free, dairy free, and low sugar. These are the perfect, healthy breakfast muffin!
If you’re looking for an easy and healthy snack, then look no further than these gluten free protein oat bars. Made from real ingredients and whole proteins, these oat bars are far cleaner than anything you’d find in the store.
Snacks are my love language and I always have something in my purse for emergencies, but a lot of pre-packaged snacks and bars are filled with fake sugars, weird flavors, and gut-disrupting ingredients. Having an easy, healthy, and high protein snack on hand for that afternoon slump is a must. That’s where these gluten free protein oat bars come in!
These oat bars are easy to whip up, made from real, whole food ingredients, and will last you the week.
Ingredient Notes
Oats: To keep this recipe gluten free, make sure to use certified gluten free oats.
Protein: These homemade protein bars get their protein content from oats, egg whites, and protein powder. This recipe calls for pea protein as it acts like a flour. My favorite pea protein is from Sprout Living as it has no other added ingredients, flavorings, or sugar alcohols. Use code LEMONSNLYME20 for 20% off your order!
Wet ingredients: A combination of butter, maple syrup, and egg whites is used to hold these bars together. You can use real or vegan butter. I use vegan to keep it dairy free, but either works and adds to the flavor of these oat squares. This recipe uses real maple syrup as it’s better for your gut than a fake sugar substitute. Lastly, we’re keeping that protein content boosted with a few egg whites.
To top off these homemade oat bars and make them perfect, you can’t skip out on the chocolate drizzle! I mean is it really an enjoyable snack or protein bar if there isn’t some chocolate involved?! You can use whatever your favorite chocolate is, just melt it down with a little coconut oil and then drizzle it over the top of the baked oats.
An easy and healthy snack, these protein oat bars are allergy friendly and made with whole food ingredients. High in protein and topped off with a chocolate drizzle, you can't go wrong with a batch of these for the week!
Add cooled melted butter, maple syrup, egg whites, and vanilla to a large bowl and whisk to combine.
Add the oats, protein powder, and cinnamon to the bowl and mix everything together.
Line a 9×9 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
Pour your oat mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
Bake oat bars for 30-35 minutes, until slightly golden. Let cool completely before cutting into 9 squares.
When bars are cooled, melt your chocolate chips and coconut oil together until smooth. Drizzle over the oat bars (or dip them into the chocolate). Place in the fridge until chocolate has set.
