Grab ‘n Go Cinnamon Scones
Yes, PLEASE! You’ve gotta love an easy grab and go keto breakfast of Cinnamon Scones, especially when you’re sick of bacon and eggs. I’m a huge fan of eggs for a meal, especially if they are from Vital Farms. Vital Farms has super happy chickens that produce THE BEST eggs. However, sometimes you may need a break.
But back to the Scones…
These Cinnamon Scones are really wonderful to have in the freezer (baked or unbaked). Pull one out for breakfast on the run or even a late afternoon meal. The texture of this meal is also dense and satisfying.
This scone obsession actually started in my quest for the perfect cookie. Imagine that! I came up with an egg free Lemon Drop Cookie.
I struggled forever to come up with a great keto cookie, until I struck gold with an egg free version. People went crazy over my cookies and it started me thinking.
Next came the low carb Lemon Poppy Seed muffins and Lemon Poppy Seed Scones. Now I can’t stop myself. The variations of scones, cookies and muffins are limitless.
From sweet to savory and from snack to meal these low carb options work for most keto lifestyle food choices. Because most of my low carb recipes fall below 3-4g net carbs they can work very well into your macros.
My secret to lasting weight loss
Maintaining my weight loss, and quite frankly staying healthy, has always been the main driver for this website. Making meals like these Pepperoni Pizza Egg Cups is really my trick. Sorry, it’s that simple for me…I meal prep and almost always cook at home.
I wrote a few articles about this and will write more, but I want everyone to know that cooking at home is one of my major keys to success. Every meal does not have to be epic, but when I am prepared I have a much better chance at success.
