Almond butter oat scones. Vegan. Gluten free.

Oh how I loved scones, before the whole transition over to a plant based and gluten free diet.  Seriously, it was a lovely treat to grab one from a local bakery, even Starbucks!  The dryness was so strangely addictive.  I’ve attempted a few recipes but none left me smitten.  This recipe was a moister version and quite delightful.  The crunchy topping in lieu of icing was a classic spin.

These are perfect for a grab and go breakfast, paired up with a cup of tea of coffee.  Even my youngest loves these to grab before classes.  As the weather transitions over to cooler temps, this hearty little treat is a welcome addition to your favorite hot beverage.  I hope you agree.

Happy Monday friends!

  1. These look lovely! I recently saw this recipe featured on the site, One Green Planet, and I was wondering what size bananas you used for the recipe, and/or what the measured amount might be? Thank you for your help.

      1. Thanks for replying; I live in the US and could you estimate by a 1 cup measure what 115 Grams per banana might be? I googled the info and am finding inconsistent data, as there is a difference between bananas still in the skin vs. skinned. Thanks.
