Vickys Scottish Scones, Dairy, Egg & Soy-Free

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to gas 7 / 220C / 425F and line a baking tray with parchment paper

2. 2

   Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a large mixing bowl.

3. 3

   Add the dairy-free spread (butter if not on a dairy-free diet) and rub into the flour with your fingers until it resembles breadcrumbs

4. 4

   Mix in the sugar, than add 2 tablespoons of preferred milk to start with and hand knead until a dough starts to form

5. 5

   The dough should be easily shaped but not wet, add more milk if required

6. 6

   Flour a surface and roll out the dough so it's 1 inch thick, this is the secret to the scones rising.

7. 7

   Use a 2 inch fluted round cutter

8. 8

   Keep rolling the left over dough to get as many scones cut out as possible.

9. 9

   You should get at least 10

10. 10

    Put the scones on the greased tray and brush the tops with a little more preferred milk to glaze, then bake for 10-12 minutes or until well risen and golden

11. 11

    Best eaten warm, split in half with butter or clotted cream (cashew cream recipe on my profile) and raspberry jam!

12. 12

    Freeze if not being all used the same day, they only keep a couple of days otherwise
