Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Coconut sugar
- 0.5 cup Coconut oil, solidified
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup Fresh blueberries (optional)
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 gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and coconut sugar until well combined.
Add the solidified coconut oil to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or fork to cut in the coconut oil until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate small bowl, mix together the unsweetened almond milk, vanilla extract, and apple cider vinegar. Stir the mixture and let it sit for about 2 minutes to curdle slightly, forming vegan buttermilk.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix. If using, gently fold in the fresh blueberries.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and shape it into a disc about 1-inch thick.
Using a sharp knife or a dough cutter, cut the disc into 8 equal wedges.
Transfer the scone wedges onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each piece.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and allow the scones to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the scones warm or at room temperature with your favorite vegan butter or jam.
