Scones (vegan)
Ingredients
8oz self raising flour (+ pinch of salt if wanted)
1 1/2-2 tsp Baking powder
1.5oz Pure soya spread
1-2 oz sugar (I use dark brown soft sugar for flavour)
1-2oz of either dairy free chocolate chips/sultanas (or omit for plain scones)
Dairy free milk to bind
Method
mix flour, baking powder & Pure spread until resembles breabcrumbs.
add sugar & choc chips/sultanas & mix briefly (if using)
add enough dairy free milk to get a dryish 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...
