SPEEDY LOW-SUGAR VEGAN STRAWBERRY SCONES

Super simple, fruity and low in sugar – these scones are perfect for a quick bake or to store in the freezer for later!

Ingredients

• 115g (4oz) self-raising wholemeal flour

• ½ tsp baking powder

• ½ tsp ground cinnamon

• 25g (1oz) coconut oil

• 15g (½ oz) caster sugar – less than most recipes!

• 80g (2½ oz) hulled fresh strawberries, chopped

• Around 4 tbsp of your choice of milk – I use soya – plus a little extra for glazing

  
  

These ingredients are not only easily accessible, but they also help to create a treat that feels indulgent while still being healthy.

Preparation Steps

1. Heat oven to 220°C / fan 200°C / gas 7. Lightly flour a baking tray and set it aside.

2. Mix flour, baking powder, and cinnamon in a bowl. Rub in coconut oil until the mix looks like breadcrumbs.

3. Stir in sugar and strawberries, then add milk gradually to form a soft dough.

4. Gently knead on a floured surface. Divide into 5 rounds.

5. Cool on a wire rack – or enjoy warm!
