  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, coconut sugar, sea salt, lemon zest, and baking powder.

  3. Make a well in your dry ingredients and add egg, coconut oil, coconut milk, vanilla extract. Fold the wet mixture into the dry until a dough forms. (The dough should be pliable but not crumbly or stiff; add a little more coconut milk, a teaspoon at a time, if it's dry.) Fold the currents into the dough.

  4. Using a large cookie or ice cream scoop, drop the scones onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Gently flatten the tops of the scones. They should be about 1 inch thick and bake 15 minutes, until the tops are golden brown. Cool on wire rack.
