Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and lightly grease a baking sheet.
  2. Sift together dry ingredients in a large bowl and slowly cut in the oil using your hands or a spatula, until it's the consistency of large clumps of sand. 4. Stir in flavor choice from above.
  3. Combine almond milk, water, and egg. Slowly add wet ingredients to dry ingredients, using just enough to moisten the batter (you may not need all the liquid).
  4. On a floured surface, shape batter into a 1” thick circle and cut out 12 scones in triangles. Space scones 2-3” apart on a baking sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Handy Hint: Like savory scones? Add 1 cup of spinach to batter and replace sugar with equal parts nutritional yeast and your favorite herb blend.
