  • 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella
  • 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar
  • 8 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 medium jalapeno, thinly diced (de-seed for less spice)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees and line baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and heavy whipping cream. Mix in mozzarella and cheddar.
  4. Pour wet ingredients into bowl of dry ingredients.
  5. Using a spatula or your hands, fold ingredients together until well-combined. Fold in crumbled bacon and jalapeños.
  6. Transfer mixture to prepared baking sheet and press dough into even circle.
  7. Using a knife, cut dough into 8 equal wedges, separating each piece from another.
  8. Bake scones for 22-25 minutes.
  9. Remove from oven and allow to cool on cooling rack for 10-15 minutes prior to serving (NOTE: it is important to allow them to cool before eating as the inner part of the scone will finish cooking during this time).
