I have and they are lovely. I ate mine (27g carbs) with my very low GI (veg curry 45g carbs) tea and got away with a plus 2 spike. V happy. Use a similar approach for mince pies and other v high gi treats. Hope this helps.
they are about a million carbs per bun unfortunately and the wholemeal won't slow the dried fruit down hardly at all, will still hit you like a train ..... even with half an inch of butter ...... 😱
Oh wow I had a hot cross bun, hour after I had eaten it blood went up to 10.8 I thought ok not bad ..... 3 hrs later 18.6!!!!!!! Not good
 
I had a scone this afternoon. I knew they were high but it's only once in a while - 37.8g carb in every flippin one!
 
I'm going to have to perfect flax meal scones. I know there will be no fruit but still plenty of room for butter :D
 
I'll try to make some low carb scones. Bit of practice & i'll get there.🙂
