Sweet Treats^ RECIPES
1 Preheat the oven to 200°C/Gas Mark
6 and lightly dust a large, flat baking
sheet with gluten free flour.
2 Place the flours, ground almonds,
sugar, baking powder and salt into
a bowl and mix well. Add the
bluberries and mix gently. Make
a well in the centre and add the
yoghurt and half of the non-dairy
milk. Mix. Keep adding a little more
non-dairy milk at a time until the
dough comes together. You may not
need to use the full amount.
3 Place a sheet of greaseproof paper
(or a silicone sheet) onto a baking
tray and turn the dough out onto it.
Gently pat the dough together into
a cohesive round shape that's
approximately 3cm (1in) deep. Place
the baking sheet in the oven
4 Bake for around 15 minutes, or until
risen and golden. It's cooked when
a knife inserted into the middle
comes out clean.
5 Remove from the oven. If you're
making one large scone, slice it into
eight while it's still hot, otherwise
leave to cool on the baking sheet.
6 Serve with vegan spread, jam, and/ or
a little vegan cream.
7 Store in an airtight container for
2 days. Scones are at their best eaten
straight away while they are fresh.
One cooled, these scones freeze well.
