Scones can be pretty dry but that is not the case here. These vegan blueberry scones are incredibly moist, tender and just plain delightful. They taste a million times better than the ones at Starbucks, and are made with no animal ingredients! These Vegan Blueberry Scones:
Are made in 1 bowl Are moist & tender Have crumbly edges and a golden crunchy exterior Include a wonderfully simple glaze drizzle Have an abundance of blueberries!
How to make vegan blueberry scones:
First, preheat the oven to 400 degrees and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Next, in a large bowl, add the flour, baking powder, ground flaxseeds, sugar and salt. Stir to combine. Add the cold vegan butter and use a pastry cutter (or your hands if needed) until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Pour in the milk and vanilla, and stir until just combined. Then fold in the blueberries.
On a lightly floured surface, turn out the dough and knead it just a few times until it comes together. Flatten the dough into a circle, about 1 inch thick. Slice into 8 equal triangles with a pizza cutter or large knife.
Place the scones onto the prepared baking sheet, and bake for 22-26 minutes until golden brown on top.
Let the scones cool for at least 15 minutes before drizzling the glaze on top. The glaze is totally optional, you can leave it out if desired.
Can vegan blueberry scones be frozen? Yes, you can freeze these scones after they cool if desired. I would leave the icing off if you are going to freeze them though. Can you use frozen blueberries for these scones? Yes, you can use frozen blueberries. Do not thaw frozen blueberries if using, but add them directly from the freezer to the dough. They still might make your scones a little blue but they will taste great! I especially like using those little frozen wild blueberries in scones. Can blueberry scones be made gluten free? I haven’t tried it myself, but I’m sure a good quality gluten free flour mix would work just fine. You can also substitute whole wheat pastry, spelt or white whole wheat flour for some or all of the white flour, if desired.
