Ingredients
- 1 tbsp flax seed meal (ground) Add 3 tbsp of water to flax seed and set aside.
- 2 3/4 cups gluten free flour Bob's Red Mill One to One Baking Flour
- 1/3 cup cane sugar Wholesome Organic Cane Sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt Pink Himalayan Salt
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tbsp baking powder Hain Baking Powder
- 1 tsp xanthan gum Omit if your gluten free flour has this.
- 1/2 cup vegan stick butter, cold Earth Balance stick butter
- 1/2 cup raspberries organic, fresh
- 1 cup strawberries hand crushed and drained
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup vegan vanilla yogurt Kite Hill Artisan Vanilla Almond Yogurt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a small dish, mix flax seed and 3 tbsp of warm water and set aside while you prep all other ingredients.
- In a large bowl, mix all dry ingredients together (flour, sugar, salt, xanthan gum, baking powder, and baking soda.)
- Using a pastry cutter or a fork, take cold butter and cut it into the dry ingredients until the flour looks crumbly.
- Fold in raspberries.
- Place strawberries into a bowl and mash with a fork or meat tenderizer, until strawberries are in small pieces. Drain liquid from strawberries, then fold into flour ingredients. Note: If strawberries are too moist, it will cause scones to be denser.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine prepared flax seed, vanilla extract, and vegan vanilla yogurt.
- Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix until flour is moist and holding shape. Note: You can use a spoon, but I used my hands.
- Split dough evenly and form each section into 6-8 inch circle. Thickness should be about 3/4 -1 inch thick. Place each circle on parchment paper.
- Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut 8 slices in each circle. Pull slices apart from each other to prevent them from sticking together.
- Bake scones for 20 minutes or until lightly brown.
- Perfect for a tea party, breakfast, brunch or dessert.
