Ingredients
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- ½ cup all-natural zero calorie sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips or chunks
Instructions
- 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.
