Vegan Blueberry Scones

Recipe by noracooks.com (slightly modified)

Ingredients

• 1¼ cups all purpose flour
• ¾ cup spelt flour (or all purpose flour)
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 tablespoon ground flaxseeds
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• 8 tablespoons solid coconut oil (or cold vegan butter)
• ¾ cup soy milk (or almond or coconut milk)
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• ¾-1 cup frozen (or fresh) blueberries

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, ground flaxseeds, salt and sugar.
3. Add the coconut oil, and use a fork to work into the dry ingredients. It should resemble coarse crumbs.
4. Pour in the milk and vanilla, and stir until just combined. Fold in the blueberries.
5. 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.
6. Using a pizza cutter or large knife, cut it like you would a pizza, into 8 pieces.
7. Place the scones onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 22-26 minutes, until lightly golden brown on top.
