Whole Wheat Scones, Vegan

  • 10 mins
  • 30 mins

Ingredients

  • 2 cups whole wheat flour, plus extra for dusting
  • 1/4 cup raw/turbinado sugar, plus 2 tablesppons to sprinkle on top
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup Earth Balance (other margarines will not work as well)
  • 1/4 cup soy or rice milk (unsweetened)

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400F.

Mix dry ingredients together, making sure there are no lumps in your baking soda or baking powder.
Rub in Earth Balance with your fingertips until the dough has a crumb like texture.
Pour in the soymilk a little bit at a time, mixing as you go. You only need to add enough soymilk for the dough to stick together.

Dust your countertop (or a large cutting board) with flour, and drop the dough onto the floured surface. Sprinkle a little more flour on top and form the dough into a circle about 1.5 inches thick. Cut the circle into 8 triangular slices like pie wedges.
Place the scones onto a cookie sheet at least an inch apart. Sprinkle tops with additional sugar.

Bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden on top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Number of Servings: 8
