• Cranberry Flax Breakfast Scones

  Cranberry Flax Breakfast Scones
  
  
  
  Cranberry is one of my favourite flavours, and it these scones they are delightful. If you are not a cranberry enthusiast feel free to substitute them with another sort of dried fruit (apricot anyone? mango?)
  
  Ingredients:
  2 cups of flour
  1 Tbsp baking powder
  1/4 cup unrefined sugar
  1/8 tsp salt
  4 Tbsp vegan margarine
  1/4 cup dried cranberries
  1/8 cup of flax
  1 cup soy milk
  extra soy milk for brushing
  
  Directions:
  preheat oven to 350f
  
  1. Combine flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large bowl and stir.
  
  
  
  2. Cut in margarine with a fork (or do this in the food processor) until you form a coarse meal. Make sure your margarine is quite cold for this.
  3. Add cranberries and flax stir well.
  
  
  
  4. Add soy milk a little bit at a time and stir until dough just begins to hold together.
  5. Put dough on a floured surface and knead 10 times (no more or it will get too tough)
  6. Roll dough out in to a rectangle and cut in half and then into squares and then into triangles (I am sure there must be an easier way to word this).
  
  
  
  7. Place scones onto baking trays about half an inch apart and brush tops with soy milk (this will make them brown up nicely).
  
  
  
  8. Pop in the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
