These vegan scones can be made both sweet and savoury for the
perfect afternoon treat!
Ingredients
300g Self Raising Flour
75g Castor Sugar
75g Plant Based Butter (cold and cubed)
25ml Almond Milk
1 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 Cup Sultanas
100g Soya Yoghurt
Method
Preheat the oven 180º/160º fan.
Mix the flour, baking powder and sugar in a bowl.
Cube the butter, add to the bowl and rub into the dry mixture
with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine
breadcrumbs.
Add the sultanas.
In a jug, mix together the soya yoghurt and 25ml of almond
milk.
Pour into the dry mixture, gently stirring. Combine the dough
using your hands - add a little more milk if necessary.
Lightly dust a worktop with a little flour and place the dough
on top and gently knead into a smooth roll. Do not overwork
the dough.
Keep the roll of dough quite thick, approx 2 inches in height.
Then use a cookie cutter to cut out circles of dough. Arrange these
onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Use a fork to prick the top of the scones twice each.
Melt a little extra butter in a small, microwavable dish. Add a
little almond milk and stir until combined.
Use a pastry brush the top of each of the scones with the
butter milk wash.
Place in the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the tops
have turned golden brown. Use a skewer to check that the scones are
cooked in the centre.
When cooked, place the scones on a cooling rack.
Once cooled, serve!
Top Tips...
Coconut milk can be used in place of almond milk.
Substitute the soy yoghurt for 100ml almond or coconut
milk.
Dates or raisins can be used instead of sultanas.
Make savoury scones by omitting the sugar and adding chopped
chives or vegan cheese to the dough.
This recipe makes approximately 12 scones depending on the
cutter size you are using.
Ensure the plant butter is used straight from the fridge; this
will create a good breadcrumb mix.
Larger scones will need a little longer in the oven. Check
after 15 minutes and then return to the oven if the centre is not
cooked through.
Serve with plant based butter, coconut cream and jam or vegan
cream cheese.
