INGREDIENTS

2 cups all-purpose flour

½ teaspoon salt

1/3 cup sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

6 tablespoons cold butter, cubed

2 eggs, beaten

1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt

½ teaspoon almond extract

1 cup finely diced peaches

Vanilla Almond Glaze:

1/4 cup Justin’s Vanilla Almond Butter

¼ cup powdered sugar

2-3 tablespoons milk

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, sugar and baking powder. Whisk to combine. Using a pastry cutter or fork, cut in the butter. Add the eggs, yogurt and almond extract and stir. Fold in peaches. Dough will be wet and sticky.

Form dough into a 10-inch circle on the prepared baking sheet. Cut into 8 wedges and separate slightly. Bake 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from oven and cool slightly.

To make the glaze, combine the almond butter, powdered sugar, and milk in a small bowl and whisk well. Add more milk as needed to make the glaze drizzly. Drizzle over scones and serve warm.

Paleo Almond Butter Crusted Chicken on parchment papers with cut baby tomatoes and lemon slices on a wooden serving tray

This Paleo Almond Butter Crusted Chicken is anything but average. I’ve added JUSTIN’S® Classic Almond Butter in the marinade to complement the chicken. I also use almond meal instead of bread crumbs and I promise you, the taste isn’t compromised. My family loves this recipe for dinner, and I think yours will too!
