Who doesn’t love a good old classic scone with a cuppa?!? Throw in some vegan chocolate chips and bob’s ya aunty! Baking vegan sconces is a fun and easy process and a great activity for the kids. You can swap out chocolate for fruit or leave it out all together and have plain scones. So let’s get baking!
		Vegan Choc Chip Scones
- Total Time: 25 minutes
 - Yield: 12 scones 1x
 
Ingredients
																
							Scale
													
									
			- 3 cups plain flour (375g, plus extra)
 - 2 tsp baking powder
 - 1/2 tsp salt
 - 1/2 tsp baking soda
 - 1/4 cup white sugar (60g)
 - 1 tsp cinnamon
 - 1/2 cup vegan butter or margarine (112g, cubed and cold)
 - 3/4 cup soy milk (205ml, plus more for brushing the tops)
 - 1 tbs white vinegar
 - 1 tsp vanilla extract
 - 200 g vegan chocolate chips
 
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, sugar, cinnamon, together with a whisk
 - Add cold cubed butter to flour and use either a pastry cutter or your hands to rub butter into flour until its flaky and crumbly. Try and do this step quickly so the butter doesn’t heat up.
 - Mix soy milk and vinegar together to make a vegan butter milk then stir in vanilla extract.
 - Add milk to flour in thirds and gently mix together with hands until it becomes a dough. Don’t over kneed it, only until it just comes together and they should still be dregs of flour around the edges.
 - Add chocolate chips and gently combined. Don’t over kneed the dough.
 - Flour a clean surface and tip dough out onto the surface.
 - Gently push dough into a flat circle around 1 inch thick.
 - Using a 6CM cookie cutter, cut out scones and place on a greased baking tray. You can bake them separately for a crispy outside or together to retain more moisture.
 - Place scones in fridge for 10 mins to chill. This will help the scones rise.
 - Pre heat oven to 200C/392F and bake scones for 15-20 mins until the centres are light and fluffy.
