Scones alla composta di mele
Ingredienti
- 2 tazza Farina a lievitazione spontanea - (nota 1)
- ½ bicchiere Salsa di mele non zuccherata - (nota 2)
- ½ bicchiere Yogurt senza lattosio - (nota 3)
Facoltativo – consigliato per i sapori
- 2-3 cucchiai Zucchero Di Cocco - recommened for sweet scones
- 1 cucchiaino da tè Cannella
- 1 cucchiaino da tè Estratto di vaniglia
- Latte di mandorla - to brush on top
Istruzioni
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly oil the paper with cooking oil spray. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, add self-rising flour, applesauce, and yogurt along with any of the optional ingredient (sugar, cinnamon, and/or vanilla).
- Stir with a fork, then use your fingers to rub the ingredients together and form a smooth dough. If it's too sticky, add a little more flour. If it's too dry, add a little more yogurt to bring together.
- Place the dough ball in front of you, press it to flatten it, and then roll it into an 8-inch disc using a rolling pin.
- Use a round scone cutter to cut the disc into 3 scones. Gather the leftover dough outside the cookie cutter to reform a dough ball, roll and cut again to form 3 extra scones. Depending on how thick you made your scones, you will make 5 or 6 in total.
- Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet two thumbs apart so they don't touch each other. They expand in the oven.
- You can now brush the top with a bit of almond milk or yogurt.
- Bake the scones for 18-20 minutes in the center rack of the oven at 400°F (200°C) until golden brown and crispy on the edges and top. Insert a toothpick in the center of the scone to check if they are baked, if it comes out clean the scones are ready.
- Let them cool down on a cooling rack at room temperature for 1 hour.
- Serve with nut butter, jam, or preserve.
Note
Alimentazione
Ingredienti e sostituzioni
Per preparare questa ricetta bastano solo 3 semplici ingredienti. Ecco come sceglierli e sostituirli.

- Farina a lievitazione spontanea – This is the base of the scone and provides the structure. It already includes a leavening agent, which is what makes the scones rise. If you don’t have it, you can make your own by whisking 3 teaspoons of baking powder into 2 cups of all-purpose flour.
- Salsa di mele non zuccherata – This adds moisture and binds the ingredients together, acting as an egg replacement. You can also use sweetened applesauce if you like, or swap it for the same amount of mashed banana.
- Yogurt senza lattosio – This adds more moisture and a slight tang, helping to create a soft scone. I use plain or vanilla-flavored plant-based yogurts, like coconut, cashew, or oat yogurt.

I consigli di Carine per la pasticceria
Ecco qualche altro consiglio per preparare degli scones perfetti.
- Savory or Sweet – These scones aren’t very sweet because the applesauce doesn’t add much sweetness. This makes them perfect for sweet fillings like jam or nut butter, or even savory toppings like avocado.
- Adding Sweetness – If you want a sweeter scone, stir 2-3 tablespoons of coconut sugar or unrefined cane sugar into the dough.
- More Flavor – For a warmer taste, mix in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract with the main ingredients.
- Applesauce Choice – You can use sweetened applesauce instead of unsweetened if you prefer a sweeter base from the start.
- Banana Option – Feel free to swap the applesauce for an equal amount of mashed banana if you want a banana-flavored scone.







Definitely been waiting for this recipe all my life!
awww! that’s so sweet thank you.
I’ve done these twice, very very nice and so fluffy!!
Grazie
I am so happy you love these scones!
Hello thank you so much for your recipes thoroughly enjoy reading them and contemplating making them but …….
Anyway my daughter was asking when I mentioned your above recipe if you can make homemade applesauce?
Thanking you in anticipation
You can absolutely make your own at home. Peel, core, and chop four large apples into small chunks to ensure they cook down quickly. Place the pieces in a saucepan with a splash of water, a squeeze of lemon juice, and a pinch of cinnamon for flavor. Cover and simmer over medium heat for about 15 to 20 minutes until the apples are completely soft and tender. Once cooked, mash them with a fork for a chunky texture or use a blender for a silky smooth consistency. Store it in the fridge for up to a week, and before using in any baked goods – don’t use it warm in baking!
Would these work with a 1 to 1 GF flour blend that contains xanthum gum?
Not exactly, you will need to do a few more adjustments using my gluten-free converter QUI.
Can you substitute Almond Flour for the Self Rising Flour if you add baking powder?
No, you can never swap self-rising flour or flour for almond flour, it will never firm up.
Can I use sour cream or mayonnaise if I am out of yogurt?
I haven’t tried any of those, mayonnaise sounds strange to me, as it’s lots of salt and fat. Maybe sour cream will be better, but since I don’t bake with dairy, I can’t guarantee.
looking great will try
Fammi sapere come va!
Thanks for such a great looking recipe. I will try this first exactly as you stated it. Second, I’ll try it adding unsweetened vegan protein powder to increase protein intake. Love scones!!!
Thank you! I look forward to hear your feedback on these!
Hi, Dairy Free Yogurt is not available where I am… Would there be any other substitute?
Yes, as mentioned in my note any type of yogurt will work.
Thank you for sharing this recipe! They came out perfectly and so delicious
I am so happy to hear that, thank you for the lovely feedback!
