Tea Time Scones are a quintessential centerpiece for any Mother’s Day tea.
Are you tired of avoiding all of your favorite foods because they are made with harmful ingredients? Well, I was too and that is what propelled me to create this scones recipe.
I love to be able to recreate our favorite foods using clean and healthy ingredients. This scones recipe was one I have been working to perfect, and it gives me great joy to be able to share it with you.

Notes
Tea Time Food Ideas
I grew up with tea time as a ritual in my grandparents’ home as well as my own parents. One of our all time favorite tea time snacks is Green Chutney Sandwiches. Find a clean gluten free bread, like Bread Seriously (clean except for psyllium husk) or you can make the Medical Medium Bread, which my kids love. Make the green chutney recipe from my Chutneys and Sauces Recipe Book and load that chutney on the sandwich bread.
Another classic tea time idea is gluten free muffins or cookies. One of our favorites is this Banana Walnut Muffins. Share some of your favorite tea time ideas below! I would love to hear.
To your health & happiness,
