Simple Vegan Scones

Ingredients

3 cups flour

2 tablespoons baking powder

1/4 cup sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/3 cup vegan butter

1 1/4 non-dairy milk (I like using homemade oat milk)


Directions

Step 1:  Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  In a large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.

Step 2:  Add the vegan butter and mix until crumbly, then add the milk and mix until just combined.
Don’t over mix or the scones will turn out too chewy.

Step 3:  Grease a cookie sheet with a little more butter, and drop the dough onto it by 1/4 cupfuls.  Lightly pat the tops and sprinkle with a little sugar, if desired.  Bake 12-15 minutes or until they are just a little golden brown on top.

These scones are delectable and very versatile!  Feel free to mix in anything from a dash of vanilla to dried cranberries to chocolate chips.

This recipe is also a great way to use up all that leftover oat pulp from your homemade oat milk.  Modify the amounts just a little (see below), and you end up with scrumptious “Simple Vegan Cinnamon Oat Scones”.

2 1/2 cups four

2 tablespoons baking powder

1/4 cup sugar

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/3 cup vegan butter

3/4 cup oat pulp (A little more or a little less won’t matter.  Just use up whatever you have left!)

3/4 cup non-dairy milk


Directions:

Follow the same directions as above, adding the cinnamon with the dry ingredients and the oat pulp along with the butter.

Enjoy!
