I recently made these with gluten free flour (Bob’s Red Milll One to One flour) and they came out amazing. Dare I say better than the original. So feel free to make that swap if you need, they are wonderful.
And as I noted above, you can use any chips you prefer, and even chocolate chunks.

How to Make Healthy Chocolate Chip Scones
If you don’t have a pizza cutter that’s ok, just use a large kitchen knife to cut the scones.
And if you don’t have parchment paper, simply grease the baking dish so the scones don’t stick.
How to Make Skinny Chocolate Chip Scones:
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt together in a large bowl or your big standing mixer.
- Cut up the butter in small pieces and then add to the flour mix and work with your fingers until they are small as peas.
- In a medium bowl combine the Greek yogurt, almond milk and vanilla extract.
- Mix the Greek yogurt mixture and chocolate chips into the flour until just combined.
- Flour a clean surface, split the scone batter in two dough balls on the floured surface.
- Squish and mold into two round discs, using a pizza cutter cut each disk into 8 slices, just like you are cutting a pizza or a pie.
- Arrange on the baking sheet, you can get them close together as they don’t spread too much but make sure they are not touching.
- Bake for 15-17 minutes, until they are slightly golden.
- Remove from the oven, let cool on the baking sheet (this helps to keep them cooking) for 5 minutes.
