Scones (dairy free)

Ingredients
8oz self raising flour (+ pinch of salt if wanted)
1.5oz Pure soya spread
1oz sugar (I use dark brown soft sugar for flavour)
1 egg
soya milk
1-2oz of either chocolate chips (dairy free) or sultanas

Method
mix flour & Pure spread until resembles breabcrumbs.
add sugar & choc chips/sultanas & mix briefly
add egg & mix well.
add enough soya milk to get a dry dough (if you over do it, just add more flour until back to what's needed).
This makes a softer than usual scone mixture, so handle carefully, it cooks fine, you just can't be too heavy handed with it.
flatten into rectangle that is around 3cm thick. cut into 8 squares(ish). This mixture should not make more than 8 scones - if it does, they are too thin (which is where most people go wrong with scones). Coat with layer of egg/milk if you want a golden top...
cook on metal tray at 220C for 10-12 mins (if your oven only goes to 200C like mine, then 15 mins).
Try to allow them 5 mins resting time cooling...

They do freeze well if they have lived long enough to make it to a freezer...:whistling:
