Ingredients
  

Vegan Blueberry Scones

  • 2 cups flour
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 Tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup solid coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk from a can

  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 cup blueberries fresh or frozen

Lemon Glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2-3 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp lemon zest

Instructions
 

For Vegan Blueberry Scones

  • Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  • Add the cold coconut oil to the dry ingredients. Using a large fork or your hands (I use both!) cut the coconut oil into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Mix in coconut milk, applesauce and vanilla until just combined. 
  • Gently fold in the blueberries 
  • Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and shape it into a rectangle about 1 inch thick. Place your scone dough in the freezer to chill for 30 minutes.
  • While your scones are chilling, preheat your oven to 400° F and line a cookie sheet with clean parchment paper.
  • Cut your scones into triangular wedges
  • Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet (leaving room for them to expand some) and bake for 10-15 minutes or until they turn golden brown on the bottom and are not jiggly on the top. The tops should firm up, but not turn golden brown
  • Let the scones cool for a few minutes before adding the lemon glaze. 

Add Lemon Glaze

  • Place all glaze ingredients in a small mixing bowl. Start with 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, and then add the third if you need to, depending on the texture you want.
  • Whisk together the glaze ingredients until smooth, and a texture you like.
  • Using a spoon, drizzle lemon glaze on top of cooled vegan blueberry scones
