Vegan Scones with Cream

Cream or jam first?

We can discuss that later. Pop the kettle on! This recipe makes fluffy and risen scones every time. And it’s all vegan!

Vegan Scones with Cream

Course: Dessert

Ingredients

For the scones

  • 250 g self raising flour
  • 40 g caster sugar
  • 40 g vegan spread
  • 125 ml almond milk plus a little extra for glazing
  • pinch of salt

For the cream

  • 80 ml coconut cream
  • 2 tbsp caster sugar

Instructions

  • First, preheat the oven to 200 C and line a baking tray with baking parchment.
  • Mix the flour, sugar, salt and soya butter and rub until they resemble breadcrumbs. Gradually add the almond milk to the mixture to form dough. At this point you can add sultanas or any other dried fruit you like to flavour your scones – i kept mine plain as that’s how i like them!
  • Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough onto a floured surface until 2cm thick and cut out 6-8 scones using a cutter.
  • Place your scones on a baking tray, and brush the tops with a little almond milk. Bake for around 15-20 minutes (until risen and golden brown).
    You can serve them warm, or allow to cool on a wire rack.
  • To make the cream, gently remove the lid from the can (try not to shake the can too much as what we want is the thickened cream that sits at the top and not the liquid that usually sits at the bottom of the can) and place in a bowl.
  • Beat with a whisk for a few seconds or until creamy. Add in the caster sugar and beat for 1-2 minutes or until smooth. You can use it immediately or leave in the fridge for a good few days – remember the cream will harden once refrigerated, so take out the fridge 30 minutes before serving.
  • Now all you need to do is slice your scone in half and add the jam and cream. I personally go for the jam on first and then dollop the cream on top. I like to serve mine with a homemade raw raspberry jam – see my raw raspberry jam recipe here – it’s super simple!

AD This week I’ve had the pleasure of working w AD  This week I’ve had the pleasure of working with one of my favourite hummus brands @chicpfood ✨ Their hummus is made from wonky veggies to try and reduce waste and their objective is to change people’s attitudes to food prep, consumption & waste.  Naturally I had to make some yummy flatbreads to dip into their delicious hummus. They came out amazing! 🤩  Turmeric, ginger and garlic vegan flatbreads 🫓 
Makes 4 small or 2 large flatbreads (which lasted about 0.5 seconds in my house - in other words - double the recipe 😂)  Ingredients 
* 130g plain flour
* 1 teaspoon baking powder
* 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
* 1 tsp turmeric
* 1 tsp ginger
* 1 tsp basil
* 1 garlic clove, minced
* 1 tablespoons olive oil
* 1/2 teaspoon golden syrup
* 90ml cold water
* Vegetable oil for cooking  Instructions  * In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, turmeric, ginger and basil. Once combined, add the garlic, olive oil, golden syrup and most of the water (save a little to add later if necessary).
* Mix using a silicone spatula to form a dough. If the dough seems a little dry, add the remaining water. Knead for 4-6 minutes then transfer onto a floured work surface, cover with a clean tea towel and leave for 5 minutes.
* Divide the dough into four (or 2 if making larger ones) pieces. Dust each piece in a little flour and roll into a disc. 
* Add two tablespoons of oil to a pan over medium heat. When the oil looks shimmery, add a flatbread and cook until golden on one side, flip and cook until golden on the second side (1 to 2 minutes on each side).
* Once cooked, transfer to a plate and cover with a clean tea towel to keep warm. Continue with the remaining flatbreads and if the pan looks a little dry, add a bit more oil before continuing.  #poweredbyplants #flatbreads #bread #veganuary #hummus
Scrambled Tofu 🌱 YAY or NAY? ✨ Here’s how I Scrambled Tofu 🌱 YAY or NAY? ✨
Here’s how I make mine:  Tofu scramble, a vegan alternative to scrambled eggs. Super easy to make, high in protein and ready in 5 minutes!  Serves 1:
160g silken tofu
1/4 tsp black Himalayan salt (contains sulphur which is what gives this recipe an eggy taste)
1/4 tsp turmeric powder
1/8 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tbsp vegan butter alternative for frying  Use a fork to crumble and lightly mash the tofu into bite-sized pieces.  Add a little butter to a frying pan and when hot, add the tofu, black salt, turmeric, garlic powder and ground black pepper. Using a wooden spoon, stir until well combined and cook over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve immediately.
