Vegan Blueberry Scones

Total Time: 36 minutes

Yield: 8-10 depending on size

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 tablespoon baking powder

  • 1 tablespoon ground flaxseeds

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

  • 8 tablespoons solid coconut oil

  • 3/4 cup non-dairy milk

  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

  • 3/4-1 cup fresh blueberries (may use frozen as well, but will look a little messier)

  • lemon zest from 1 lemon

  • Simple Glaze, optional

    • 1 cup powdered sugar

    • 2 tablespoons almond milk

    • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

  • Instructions 

    • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

    • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, ground flaxseeds, salt, and sugar.

    • Add the cold coconut oil and use a whisk or your hands to work it into the dry ingredients. It should resemble coarse crumbs.

    • Pour in the milk and vanilla, and stir until just combined. Fold in the blueberries.

    • On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough a few times until it comes together. Flatten the dough with your hands (lightly flour your hands if sticky). Flatten it into a circle, about 1 inch thick.

    • Using a pizza cutter or large knife, cut it like you would a pizza, into 8 pieces.

    • Place the scones onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 22-26 minutes, until lightly golden brown on top.

  • Make the optional glaze:

    • Combine powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla in a small bowl and whisk until smooth. Add more powdered sugar if too thin for your liking.

    • Let scones cool for 15 minutes, then drizzle glaze onto each scone with a spoon. Let the glaze set before serving.
