Lemon Ginger Pecan Chia Scones

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Lemon Ginger Pecan Chia Scones.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.

2. Step 2

   While the oven warms up, zest your lemons and squeeze them into a measuring cup.

3. Step 3

   If you find you need a little extra liquid, feel free to add some water until you reach a total of 7 tablespoons.

4. Step 4

   In a mixing bowl, combine the fragrant lemon zest, freshly squeezed lemon juice, creamy coconut milk, chia seeds, and a splash of vanilla extract.

5. Step 5

   Let this delightful mixture sit for about 10 minutes; this will allow it to thicken beautifully.

6. Step 6

   Next, on a clean surface, chop your chilled coconut oil into small pieces.

7. Step 7

   In a food processor, blend together the flour, sugar, cream of tartar, baking soda, ground ginger, and a pinch of salt until everything is well mixed.

8. Step 8

   Now, add the diced coconut oil to the flour mixture and pulse it until the texture resembles coarse crumbs, creating a lovely base for your scones.

9. Step 9

   Pour in the coconut milk mixture and pulse just until the dough begins to clump together—don’t overdo it! Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and gently knead in the chopped pecans and hemp seeds, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough.

10. Step 10

    Divide the dough into two equal portions and shape each into a round about 1 inch thick.

11. Step 11

    Cut each round into 8 wedges, and place them on your prepared baking sheet, making sure they have a little space to breathe.

12. Step 12

    Pop them into the oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the tops spring back when you give them a gentle press.

13. Step 13

    The aroma wafting through your kitchen will be irresistible, and soon you’ll have a batch of delicious scones ready to enjoy!.
