Vegan Blueberry Scones





I placed the dough into a 9-inch round cake tin lined with parchment paper overnight. Then next day, cut into triangles. 
Placed the scone triangles onto a baking sheet. 

I made this recipe along, with Earl Grey Shortbread cookies to make British-themed baked goods for a party to watch Prince Harry and Megan's wedding! I combined 2 recipes to make blueberry scones, a recipe for Vegan Current Scones from the America's Test Kitchen, and Blueberry Lemon Scones on serious eats. They were actually quite good! I made them vegan so that my 2 younger kids could eat them, but after chasing them around the house, I could not get them to eat these! At least my husband was willing to eat this. Very good with coffee!

Vegan Scones (~from America's Test Kitchen and Serious Eats)

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups (10 oz) all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons organic sugar (used regular sugar)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 5 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup dried currents (used 1 cup to 1.5 cups fresh blueberries)
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened soy creamer (used 3/4 cup coconut milk)
  • Turbinado sugar (used white sugar crystals that you usually put for decorating sugar cookies)
Directions:
  1. Combined flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Then poured this into food processor with the coconut oil and pulsed ~ 15 times. 
  2. Added in the blueberries gently into batter (so that the blueberries would not break)
  3. Slowly added in the 3/4 cup coconut oil to dough. 
  4. Lay parchment paper onto a 9 inch round cake tin. Spread the dough out into the cake tin. 
  5. Placed the dough in the fridge over night. 
  6. Next morning, preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. 
  7. I cut the dough into smaller triangles. I cut them into 16 triangles. 
  8. I sprinkled the dough very generously with sugar crystals or turbinado sugar. Took the triangles out and placed it onto a baking sheet and sprinkled a little more sugar crystals on top.
  9. Baked for 17 min (America's test kitchen's recipe says to bake the scones for 12-15 min at 450 degrees, while the recipe on seriouseats says to bake the scones for 25 min at 400 degrees. Initially, I baked it for 12 min at 425, but it was a little under-done, so baked for additional 5 minutes.)
