Rheta's Jalapeno Cheese Scones
In food processor mix:
3 eggs
2 or 3 TBSPNs goat cheddar or parmesan cheese (Of course, you can use your favorite cheese.)
3 TBSPNs melted coconut oil or butter (careful not to cook eggs)
2 heaping TBSPNs (Rheta used pickled) jalapenos or sweet mini peppers
1/4 cup lemon and/or lime juice
1 large clove (1/2 heaping teaspoon) diced garlic
3 tablespoons fine chopped fresh cilantro or parsley leaves (remove stems for herbal teas)
Blend liquids.
Mix 3 cups almond flour (you can use 2-3tbsps chia seeds for part of this.)
3/4 tspn. baking soda
1/4 tspn salt
I didn't use this, especially if you use coconut oil or butter it will solidify and hold scones together: {Rheta's note: Very slight pinch of Xanthan gum (1/8 to 1/16th tspn). This helps it to stick together. Just beware that if you get a few too many grains of it, though, it will TOTALLY be a gluey mess. I'm not sure you HAVE to have this. But, I have made scones out of almond flour before without it. They will hold together, but they're very fragile.}
Pour into dry ingredients and mix.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Line two cookie sheets with parchment
Drop by heaping Tablespoonfuls onto cookie sheets. Mine yield about 2 dozen.
Bake in 350 oven for about 10 or 15 minutes. Let cool another 10 minutes.
Eat only after you have done your yoga :)
