Calories: 254.4kcal
- 350 grams self-raising flour extra for dusting
- 50 grams caster sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
- 100 grams raisins or sultanas
- 100 grams vegan block butter or margarine
- 150 milliliters soy milk plus extra to glaze
Sift the flour, sugar and bicarbonate of soda in to a mixing bowl.
Cut the vegan block butter into cubes and add to the bowl. Rub the butter into the flour until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.
Add the raisins to the bowl and stir to distribute amongst the scone mix.
Pour in the milk and stir until its just coming together into a crumbly dough.
Tip the dough out on to a lightly floured surface and push it together gently until you have a flat dough roughly 2-3cm deep.
Using a 7cm cutter, cut out the scones. Transfer to an oven tray that has been lined with baking paper.
Cover loosely with cling film and place in the fridge for 30 minutes to chill.
In the meantime pre-heat the oven to 220 C / 392 F /gas 7.
Place into the pre-heated oven for 15-20 minutes or until they have risen and are golden on top.
Leave to cool slightly on a wire rack.
Serve with vegan cream and jam or fresh strawberries.
