Dough should be slightly wet, not ‘knead-able’.DO NOT OVER-KNEAD or scones will be tough and not crumbly. 5 Transfer to parchment lined work surface and shape (gently) into rectangle.Place another sheet of parchment paper on top and roll out to square; ~¼” thick, 9” sides. Make filling and shape: 1 In a bowl, stir sweetener/sugar, cinnamon and tapioca starch. 2 Sprinkle cinnamon sugar mixture over dough, reserve some for top. 3 Fold ⅓ sheet from one edge toward center. Then fold other end over first ⅓ (like a letter).You should have a 3”x9” rectangle. 4 Place extra parchment paper on top of dough and roll along length out to make even longer rectangle (4”x12”). (Set parchment aside) 5 Use pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut into 3 squares (4” sides), then cut squares into 2 scones.Space out cut scones, transfer parchment paper with scones to baking sheet. 6 Place scones in fridge about 15 mins to chill. Bake: 1 Brush tops with almond milk and sprinkle on more cinnamon sugar. 2 Bake for 15-17 minutes until lightly golden brown 3 Let cool a little, top with vanilla icing (stir: sugar-free powdered sugar, milk, vanilla extract) and enjoy.View original recipe
