Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup coconut sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cup coconut oil, solid but slightly softened
- 0.75 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Add the solid coconut oil to the dry ingredients and use a pastry cutter or your hands to crumble it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, combine the unsweetened almond milk, vanilla extract, and apple cider vinegar. Stir well and let it sit for a few minutes to allow the mixture to slightly curdle.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently with a spatula until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and form it into a circle about 1 inch thick.
Cut the circle into 8 equal wedges and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each wedge.
Bake the scones in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until they are lightly golden around the edges.
Remove from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally with a drizzle of dairy-free icing or a sprinkle of extra cinnamon.
