This vegan savory scones recipe is perfect for a quick and easy breakfast. 5 ingredients and less than 20 minutes takes to make these delicious scones.

INGREDIENTS IN THIS SCONES RECIPE
- Flour: Whole spelt flour or to replace use whole wheat flour. Whole grain makes it a bit dense, but with more fiber and still delicious.
- Baking powder: Don't substitute with baking soda, as baking soda needs something acid to react.
- Butter: Use non-dairy butter like Miyoko´s, Earth Balance, or similar.
- Oat milk: To substitute use soy milk, almond milk or other non-dairy milk.
TIPS FOR MAKING THIS RECIPE PERFECTLY
- Mix flour and butter before adding oat milk to the dough, because we want fat pockets to form properly. This is essential for making crumbly scones.
- Make sure not to overprocess when combining butter and flour. We don't want the butter to melt. The butter has to remain solid so that fat pockets can form properly.
- If using an electric mixer be careful not to over-mix the dough. Use it at low speed and turn it off before you think it's ready. I recommend using a pastry blender to cut the butter into the flour, but using hands works fine too. Just make sure to work fast so that butter doesn't melt.
- You want the dough to be sticky. This will give the scones a better rise. Aim for a consistency that is too wet to knead.
