Cherry Scones

My scones are legendary! Not very sweet, very flaky, and vegan.

My scones are legendary! Not very sweet, very flaky, and vegan.

Ingredients:

  • 3 3/4 cups of flour

  • 1 1/2 tablespoon baking powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1 stick (8 tablespoons) of vegan butter

  • 1 cup dried cherries

  • 1 cup vegan milk

  • 1 cup of sugar

Steps:

Sift together flour & baking powder.  Add the butter cut into bits, and blend till it resembles a coarse meal.  Add the sugar, raising, and mix lightly.  Add the vegan milk, and softly bind together. Do not over-knead or the scones will come out "bready".  Shape in a round, flat dome, cut into 8 slices.  Bake at 425 for 8-20 minutes.

Notes:

For the flour, I use unbleached variety.  I use aluminium free baking powder and unbleached cane sugar.  You can vary this recipe by replacing the cherries with raisins.  I sometimes add nuts to my scones.
