Strawberry Coconut Scones

First off, I think “strawberry “might just be my current favorite MuscleEgg flavor.  If you have ever had Fruity Pebbles, you already know what the leftover milk tastes like (um, delicious) and I swear the Strawberry MuscleEgg tastes JUST like that BUT without the cereal.  It’s perfectly sweet and honestly reminds me of a strawberry milkshake.  Gah, it’s so good.  Considered trying flavored egg whites to spruce up your baking, smoothies, sweet eggs, French Toast, pancakes, or even just to help get your protein in each day?  I highly recommend the strawberry… their chocolate flavor comes in a very close second though (tastes just like chocolate milk)!  I NEVER ever use plain egg whites in ANY of my baking anymore now thanks to MuscleEgg.  Having that extra bit of flavor and sweetness in the whites makes a BIG difference to whatever you are making!  They are brilliant.

Second, I’m almost positive that Kodiak Cake pancake/waffle mixes might just be replacing my regular go to baking & cooking flours (oat, brown rice, white, wheat, etc.).  Initially I was only using my Kodiak mix in pancakes and waffles (obviously), but then figured I would go ahead and try it in other baked goods.  I had absolutely no issues with the exchange (1 cup flour=1 cup Kodiak) on anything I have attempted and the taste/texture come out perfect (maybe even better because the mixes are so fine in texture)!  I have tried using each of the pancake/waffle mix in cookies, cupcakes, and a cake without a single hitch, so I decided to branch out a bit more and try something a bit more unique… SCONES!!!!

They were ten times better than I could have ever imagined!  Here they are fresh out of the oven, in all of their glory!  I didn’t even put the “glaze” on at first because it was just too beautiful and perfect on their own.

Can we take a moment to just notice the sweet, golden brown, crispy edges?

OK, time for that glazed drizzle…

And I told you… the texture is sheer perfection.  It’s so cakey on the inside!

These certainly speak for themselves.  They taste JUST as good as they look!  Nice strawberry flavor thanks to the my MuscleEgg and fresh strawberries, perfectly tender and moist on the insides thanks to Kodiak.

It’s a match made in heaven… and SO easy to make!
