I had a taste for raspberry scones and thought I would try my hand at making them.
Here's the recipe:
Raspberry Scones (Vegan)
ingredients:
3 cups flour
1/3 cup sugar
1 TBSP baking powder
12 TBSP vegan butter, cut into pieces
3/4 cup oat milk
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 cup raspberries*
Icing:
1 cup powdered sugar
1 TBSP lemon juice
1/2 tsp vanilla
Oven 375F.
Line cookie sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat.
In large bowl put flour, sugar, baking powder and salt and mix together.
Add butter into the dry ingredients (use a pastry blender) until it becomes gritty.
Add milk and vanilla to mixture and stir with a spatula until it is combined. At this point, you can switch to using your hands or stick with a spoon. *
Add in the raspberries. Knead quickly and firmly, until flour is combined and the dough holds together.
Transfer dough to floured surface and shape into a flat round disk, making sure it is only 1.5inches thick.
Cut the disk into 6 wedges.
Move the wedges onto the baking sheet, leaving a little space between them.
Brush the tops of the wedges with oat milk and lightly sprinkle with some sugar (optional)
Bake 25-30 minutes, or until the scones are a golden color and fully cooked through.
For the Icing:
In a bowl, mix powdered sugar and lemon juice together until smooth.
Add vanilla and splash of milk (if needed).
Drizzle onto the scones while they are still warm.
Let them sit for a bit while the icing sets.

*I used vegan butter and oat milk. If you are not vegan, feel free to substitute butter and milk (same quantities).
*I used frozen raspberries and the scones came out beautifully
*Do not over mix, especially after adding the raspberries. Gluten will develop and this will make your scones hard. I didn't mix too much, and mine actually came out cake-like. (They were still delicious).
*Feel free to try blueberries if you aren't a raspberry person.
Enjoy!
