Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Place the nuts in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Toast the nuts in the oven until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Chop the nuts into very fine pieces.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, ¾ths of the chopped nuts, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger (or nutmeg) and salt in a bowl and whisk together.
  • Use a pastry cutter or fork to cut the coconut oil into the dry ingredients.
  • In a separate bowl, add mashed banana, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract and mix well.
  • Pour the banana mixture into the dry mixture and combine with a big spoon. When combined, use your hands to knead into a dough.
  • On a flat surface form dough into a circle that’s about an inch deep all around. Use a chef’s knife to cut the circle into 8 even slices.
  • Separate slices and place on the baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Bake for 15 minutes to 17 or until lightly golden brown.
  • Meanwhile, whisk together the glaze ingredients in a small bowl until smooth. Let the scones cool for a few minutes, then drizzle the glaze over the scones. While the glaze is wet, sprinkle it with the remaining chopped nuts.
  • Enjoy :)
