Since I was a young child, I have enjoyed making this dish. It is a combination of rice, cheese, and broccoli. Try it out; you’ll like it.

Cook Time: 30 mins
Additional Time: 10 mins
Total Time: 1 hr
Servings: 16
Yield: 16 scones

Ingredients

  1. 1 orange, zested and juiced
  2. 1 lemon, zested and juiced
  3. ¼ cup coconut milk
  4. 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  5. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  6. 2 cups all-purpose flour
  7. ½ cup white sugar
  8. 1 teaspoon baking soda
  9. 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  10. 1 teaspoon ground cardamom
  11. ¾ teaspoon salt
  12. ½ cup cold coconut oil, divided into 8 equal-size pieces
  13. ¼ cup finely chopped pecans
  14. ¼ cup finely chopped almonds
  15. ¼ cup hemp seed hearts

Instructions

  1. Preheat convection oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Stir orange juice and lemon juice together in a small bowl; add enough water, if necessary, to equal 7 tablespoons liquid.
  3. Stir juice mixture, coconut milk, orange zest, lemon zest, chia seeds, and vanilla extract together in a bowl; set aside until chia seeds gel, about 10 minutes.
  4. Combine flour, sugar, baking soda, ginger, cardamom, and salt in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until just-combined. Add cold coconut oil pieces and process until mixture resembles wet sand. Pour chia mixture into flour mixture; pulse until dough begins to come together.
  5. Transfer dough to a bowl and add pecans, almonds, and hemp; knead with your hands until nuts and seeds are evenly distributed. Divide dough into 2 pieces, and flatten each piece into a 1-inch thick disc. Cut each disc into 8 wedges, and places wedges on prepared baking sheets.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven until tops spring back when pressed, 30 to 35 minutes.

The result was really good, but I’m way too lazy to follow a recipe with this many ingredients again.

I am having my own personal little tea party right now with these scones and some Earl Grey tea. These little darlings are delicious! So many undertones of flavor, yet not one overpowers the other. I put the drizzle on top only to make them pretty, but they certainly don’t need it for taste. These are tiny, so I was afraid 30-35 minutes would be way too long; however, they were ready in 25 minutes, so watch them carefully when you bake them.
