Preheat oven to 350°F.
In a large bowl, combine flour, vanilla protein powder, unflavored protein powder, coconut flour, sweetener, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon and baking powder.
Add yogurt and pumpkin puree and pull together with spoon/spatula to make large dough crumbles.
Spread parchment paper on counter and frisk with flour.
Transfer dough crumbles onto parchment paper.
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.
Using parchment paper, shape (gently) into circle about ¾-1” thick.
Transfer parchment paper with dough onto baking sheet.
Place in fridge to chill for 20 minutes.
Use pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut into 8 scones.
Space out cut scones.
Brush tops with almond milk.
Bake for 18 minutes until outsides are crusty and lightly browned, but still soft to touch. Toothpick inserted into center should come out clean.
Let cool.
Drizzle:
Place white chocolate chips and coconut oil in a large microwave safe bowl and microwave about 30 seconds, stirring halfway, until completely melted.
