Vegan Lemon Blueberry Scones

Vegan Lemon Blueberry Scones

Course Baked Goods, Breakfast
Cuisine + Season All Year
Servings 8 -10 scones

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
  • 1 tablespoon(s) baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon(s) salt
  • 1/4 cup(s) coconut oil (melted)
  • 1 cup(s) fresh blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon(s) lemon zest
  • 1 cup(s) unsweetened, full-fat coconut milk
  • Turbinado sugar, to taste (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Heat the oven to 400°. Grab a bowl and put the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and coconut oil in the bowl. Mix until the oil is completely stirred in.
  • Add the blueberries and lemon zest to the bowl and stir.
  • Add the coconut milk or almond milk and mix with the other ingredients until a soft dough is formed. (Make sure it’s not too wet! It has to be slightly drier than biscuit dough to make good scones.)
  • Put the dough on a lightly floured baking pan and pat it out to form a disc, then refrigerate for 15 minutes.
  • After the dough has chilled, cut the disc into however many wedges you’d like. Separate the wedges on the baking sheet.
  • Grab the turbinado sugar and put a lot of that stuff all over the scones. Bake until they’re crunchy on the outside (I bake them for about 27 minutes).
  • Serve them whenever you want—they’re good warm and they’re good cold!

Notes

The coconut milk can be substituted for ¾ cups almond milk.
