Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup coconut sugar
- 0.25 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup dairy-free milk (such as almond or oat milk)
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and coconut sugar. Mix well to ensure even distribution.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, dairy-free milk, and lemon zest until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Avoid over-mixing to keep the scones light and fluffy.
Using a tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven and allow the scones to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
Serve warm, or at room temperature. Enjoy your fluffy, dairy-free oatmeal drop scones!
