Detox Pumpkin Scones

As summer winds to a close, pumpkin spice season is right around the corner.

The weather is beginning to cool and the days are becoming shorter. This change of the seasons is the perfect time to do a detox!

Since Dr. Colbert’s 21 Day Detox eliminates meat, dairy, grains, and sugar, it can sometimes be difficult to find healthy and delicious breakfast options.

This pumpkin spice scone recipe uses only whole food ingredients and less than a 1/4 cup of maple syrup for sweetness. The result is scones with only about 5 grams of sugar each!

Vegan and gluten-free, these scones are versatile and can be eaten any time of day!
