The best Vanilla Protein Scones recipe with simple, healthy ingredients. These vanilla protein scones use unflavored and vanilla protein powder and Greek yogurt for an extra high protein packed scone recipe!
Preheat oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine whole wheat pastry flour, vanilla protein powder, unflavored protein powder, coconut flour, sweetener and baking powder.
Add yogurt and pull together with spoon/spatula to make dough crumbles.
Use hands to bring together.
Knead the ONLY LITTLE till it comes together. Dough should be slightly wet, not ‘knead-able’.
DO NOT OVER-KNEAD or scones will be tough and not crumbly.
Transfer to parchment lined baking sheet and shape (gently) into circle about ¾” thick.
Use pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut into scones.
Space out cut scones.
Brush tops with almond milk and optionally sprinkle on more sweetener.
Bake for 13-15 minutes until lightly golden brown
Let cool a little, top with vanilla icing (stir: sugar-free powdered sugar, milk, vanilla extract) and enjoy.
