Strawberry Oat Flour Scones

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

These healthy oat flour scones are naturally gluten-free, and oil-free made with coconut butter or low-fat with banana for a crumbly, subtly-sweet, baked breakfast treat!

Posting more on Instagram Stories is an unwritten goal of mine this year. By more I mean at all. And unwritten because actually including it in the goal list sounded like too much commitment considering my track record with Snapchat. But so far I’ve been doing pretty well not completely failing at sticking to it. I know it is the sort of thing that once I get in the habit will be no big deal, but making it past that 21-days-of-consistency-to-form-a-habit mark is proving to be a challenge.

I like the impermanent, no-frills nature of IG Stories. But sometimes I get lost in the creative process and forget to whip out the phone and share the fact that I baked muffins. Or I have those days where I just feel like hiding from all things social media in the offline world far away from comments and likes and 15 second videos. It’s not a very practical thing to do as a blogger, but I am sure you know the feeling.

Spontaneous IG story-ing doesn’t often happen when I’m in that kind of mood, even though logically I know it only takes 2 minutes to take a photo, try to think of something clever to write on it, realize I have nothing so use cute emojis to distract from that fact, and post it to my story.

Anywho…that was a lot of rambling to say I’m going to try but I promise nothing. Except oat flour scones, those I can safely promise at this point.

If you follow me on Instagram and saw my stories from the past week or so, you would be expecting to see these scones show up on the blog any day now. Scones trial 1, trial 2, and trial banana all made an appearance there.

Strawberry Oat Flour Scones {vegan, gluten-free, oil-free}

Trial one was good, but a little too moist–like a triangular muffin. They needed more crusty crumbly biscuit-vibes.

With a few tweaks, trial two came out of the oven with perfect crusty-golden corners, a crumbly but still moist middle, and a shorter ingredient list actually! Proof that temperature and a few more minutes of baking can make a big difference.

Trial three banana was for my hardcore HCLF fruit-loving friends to find a fat-free fruitier option instead of the coconut butter used in the original recipe. And it turned out even better than I was expecting. They do have a slightly chewier texture and dry out faster, but as long as you eat them while they are warm and freshly baked they are delicious!

Besides the texture, one of my favorite things about these scones is the not-too-sweet taste. Less sugar obviously makes them more morning appropriate too, and it also makes them more topping appropriate. When I say topping I’m thinking peanut butter or vegan butter or (my favorite) JAM! Okay I may be a little bit biased towards fruity, but in my mind any biscuit-like bread just begs for a thick layer of berry jam spread on top. You could stick with strawberry jam to match the berries baked in, or get really crazy and mix things up with blueberry or raspberry jam.

Whatever suits your scone-eating fancy!

Description

These healthy oat flour scones are naturally gluten-free and oil-free made with coconut butter or low-fat with banana for a crumbly, subtly-sweet, baked breakfast treat!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ½ cups rolled or quick oats
  • ¼ cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • Pinch of salt (optional)
  • 1/3 cup coconut butter (*see notes for a fat-free option)
  • 2/3 cup non-dairy milk
  • 1/2 cup frozen strawberries
  • Optional: coconut butter glaze

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425F.
  2. In a high speed blender, grind the oats into a fine flour.
  3. Transfer to a mixing bowl and add the coconut sugar, baking powder, vanilla, salt, and lemon juice. Mix briefly to combine.
  4. Soften the coconut butter by microwaving for 15-20 seconds. It should be easy to scoop out, not dry and crumbly. Add the coconut butter (or chilled banana). Use your hands to work it in until the texture is crumbly with small pebble-sized pieces.
  5. Add half of the non-dairy milk. Use your hands to mix/knead the dough. Add the rest of the milk slowly until you have a slightly sticky dough. Do not over work it, knead with fingertips just until combined.
  6. Add the frozen berries (I pulsed frozen strawberries in a blender for smaller pieces) and mix.
  7. Shape the dough into a circle at least 1 inch high and about 8 inches in diameter.
  8. Cut into 6 triangles and transfer to a baking pan lined with parchment paper.
  9. Bake for approximately 15 minutes at 425F or until golden brown on the edges.
  10. Remove from the pan, cool briefly, and then enjoy plain or with topping/spread of choice!

Notes

*To make them fat-free, replace the coconut butter with 1 medium ripe and chilled banana. You may need to decrease the amount of nondairy milk slightly with this option, start with 1/2 cup and adjust as needed.

    I saw just the peep of today’s goodies… and I was like, Please let it be scones, please let it be scones!! And whaddya know? SCONES!! I don’t even know where to get started on how awesome these are–the drizzle (oh my goodness, that drizzle!!), the beautiful pop of color from those strawberries, the fact that you used oat flour (why have we never talked about the fact that we both LOVE baking with oat flour??), the trianglularly awesome shape of these guys… and my dear lady bird, I have to stop before I get so hungry I eat mah keyboard! Lol. As for the IG story business, I was just talking to Erik about this the other day! Like, so… it doesn’t stay there, and there are no comments? I cannot compute. Haha. So good luck and tell how it all works out! 🙂 I will be of no help until then… Lol. I like that you kept these not-too-sweet, so we could really load on all the spreads and then some. YUM! Text you soon bestie! <3 <3

As backup for when the bestie connection is lagging a little 😀 Oh how I love your scone enthusiasm–the pop, the drizzle, the spread-ibilities! Maybe that’s how we found each other can connected in the first place, the shared oat flour adoration. That must be it 😉 Yay can’t wait to text chat this weekend <333

    Girllll, these are gorgeous!! Now, I’m SO doing a happy dance that you reviewed my cake in a crate cake with the coconut butter because I’m absolutely LOVING seeing you use coconut butter now lately in your baking! Just like you said, it’s moisture magic! So much better naturally sweet flavor too, way better than coconut oil, right? I have some maple cinnamon coconut butter scones as well coming to the blog. I made mine the same week that Sophia made hers and I was asking her if hers were made with coconut butter to make sure our recipes weren’t identical, LOL! Thankfully hers weren’t anything like mine. Anyways, I love that you stuck to the trials to get these so amazing. Sometimes, all the trials are stressful, but in the end, worth it! I’m glad you used strawberries and not banana 😉 I saw your IG story on the blueberry ones..were those not good? So funny too, I have never done an IG story but have told myself I need to this year. Until recently, I didn’t even know how to do one, LOL!
    Ok, off to go watch the video!

      Well just imagine the insanely thrilled happy dancing I’m doing over here with this new found coconut-butter-rocks-in-baking thing? It is awesome! You are awesome, can’t thank you enough for this discovery! It’s better than nut butters I think. Better than coconut oil even (and oil-free yay!). Moisture-magic but also it just blends in so nicely and doesn’t overpower other flavors. Other flavors like cinnamon and maple perhaps–can’t wait! I remember Sophia’s apple sones too with that delicious caramel–still want to try those! The blueberry ones were just for trials 2 and 3 because I ran out of frozen strawberries and it was raining that day so I didn’t feel like running out lol. They tasted great, just not as pretty 😀 Post yours soon!!

    SO MUCH YES FOR VEGAN SCONES!!! And can I just say I literally LOVE and so appreciate that you included a “fruitier” version, too! You know I’m a banana lover and I’m insanely excited to try these. There’s just something that feels so special about a cute little scone and some coffee. Yours look absolutely magical (as always!). PS I also kind of died reading the part about insta stories, because I literally have the same goal and the same barriers! AKA whenever I’m baking I forever end up with sticky hands/fingers/food everywhere and I’m too lazy to get out my phone and get food all over it, haha. But your scones the other night definitely got me pumped about this recipe, so I’ll have to be sure I use mine more, too! But back to these cute lil scones, they look simply divine, Natalie. Definitely a fun weekend treat, and I can’t wait to try them!

      Hehe I love your scone enthusiasm!! I am loving coconut butter lately for baking, but I know I have a fair few readers who always want the super fruity version instead–just warding off the sure-to-come questions. The banana version is awesome since you love bananas too, especially warm and with jam? Hahaha well then maybe we can hold each other accountable on the IG stories! See another day went by today and I totally forgot ugh. And yes the messy hands does not help…thank goodness for a good phone case? Thanks for checking them out Sara, and good luck to you on the IG stories thing too?

    These look too incredible. I keep wanting to make scones but they scare me. I think once we move in a month, our place will have a larger kitchen and I’ll have more room to make a mess, and I’ll try there. Instagram Stories are so much fun, but I often will forget to do them when I most want to – like mid recipe testing. 😛

    Hello! I am going to try this recipe tonight but do not have lemon juice. Will it make a big difference? Also, I have fresh straberries instead of frozen. Should I freeze them, then pulse them like you did?

    Thanks, Bargavi

    • Natalie says

      May 8, 2017 at 5:24 pm

      The lemon juice is there to work with the baking powder and make them extra fluffy, but no it is not essential. You can substitute apple cider vinegar instead if you have that or just leave it out. As for the berries, you can just chop them up small, no need to pulse. But fresh berries will add more moisture than frozen so perhaps decrease the amount of non-dairy milk to 1/2 cup to offset the extra moisture. Good luck!

    Okay, so it took me a year after you posted this to finally make it, but so worth waiting for! I’ve been craving scones—haven’t had them for years—last one was at Starbucks, but then I went vegan and the quality of their pastries decreased and I lost my taste for commercial baked goods. Loved this! It was dessert tonight with chai and will be breakfast tomorrow with coffee. Had it unadorned. My only tweak was to add some cacao nibs because I am loving them and buying big bags that I have to use up. Not too sweet, crumbly, full of strawberries. Yum!

    I’ve used this recipe as a base several times. I have tweaked it a bit and now don’t even bother making them into the circle then slicing for the wedge shapes and do them as drop biscuits instead. I live in the Middle East and things like Coconut sugar are not readily available. I’ve used honey each time I’ve made them with great results. I’ve noticed they do hold together better with banana in them, but either way they’re still delicious. I’ve also used a variety of different fruits such as dried sour cherries, dried cranberries, and fresh shaved coconut. This recipe has held up well with all and is toddler approved. I bake large batches over the weekend to take to work and pack in my daughter’s school lunch.

      March 20, 2018 at 4:23 pm

      In place of the coconut butter? Either will work–the applesauce will make them slightly drier, adn if you go with coconut oil I would recommend reducing the amount to about 1/4 cup so they aren’t too oily. Using a liquid sweetener will throw off the moisture balance so you will likely need more flour. I can’t say exact amounts without testing it so you will have to experiment until the batter is similar to that in the video. Good luck 🙂

        I thought flapjacks were popular in the USA? I will at some point take photos of mine and put the recipe on my instagram. I cannot take credit for the original recipe though- a man I know gave me it. Altho he used muesli which I substitute oats for. I’ve been experimenting with it and making chocolatey ones ( putting Bournville cocoa powder in the mixture).I never thought of nut butters- I get Whole Earth peanut butter- might add a bit of that to my flapjacks next time I bake “chocolate” ones.

    I’ve started eating a plant based low fat diet, including more oatmeal. This recipe sounded great. I didn’t have frozen strawberries, but I had fresh. So I chopped some up to 1\2 cup. I also used unsweetened applesauce. Instead of using my oven, I used my cuisinart air fried oven.
    Baking for 15 min. unfortunately, the scone was over browned( not burnt completely)and the inside was still wet. Lol. I’ll definitely try again. Maybe when I have frozen strawberries, and a banana for the oil. Also, I’m still learning the air frier oven. But, love the oatmeal flour. Thanks for the recipe.

    Hi! I made these today and they ended up dry and very crumbly. What went wrong? 🙁

      Oh no! Hmm sounds like your dough was just too dry, can happen with simple measuring differences. Try adding more coconut butter and/or less flour next time 🙂

        Ok. The dough wasn’t dry when I was mixing it. I’ll adjust next time. Thanks!

    I was looking for a scone recipe that exclusively used oat flour, and I found this one. I’m not vegan or gluten-free, but I had almost all the ingredients on hand (except coconut butter, which I replaced with 1/4 cup coconut oil as I saw in a comment you made responding to a query about replacing coconut butter). I also only used a little more than 1/3 cup of liquid (water because I didn’t have any dairy-free milk on hand). I used blueberries instead of strawberries, because I love a good blueberry scone.

    I say all of this to say that I made these today, and tried them after they had cooled a bit, and they are delicious! I LOVE the nutty flavor the oat flour gives, and they, true to your description are slightly crumbly and subtly sweet, which I like. They are also very fluffy! I will continue to use this recipe because it is simple and delicious!

      I am so happy they were a success Faith! Appreciate your sharing your variations (love them with blueberries too, best berry for baking imo!) and I am happy they could satisfy the oat flour scone search for you. Happy sunday💞

    Can I replace the strawberry with an apple? If so , should it be frozen? I also don’t have any milk right now. Can I use water instead? thanks!

      Apple should be fine, and nope doesn’t need to be frozen! And water will work, but might make them a bit drier. Hope that helps!
