Title: Vegan Scones
Categories: Scones
Yield: 12 Scones

3 c Plain flour
30 ml Baking powder
1/4 ts Salt
1/3 c Olivani (80 ml) olive
- oil-based table spread)
1/2 c Dates (60 g);
- chopped into quarters
1 1/8 c Soy milk (approximate)

Based on the Classic Scones recipe, which can be found alongside this
one.

Preheat oven to 220?C.

Sift flour, baking powder, and salt into a bowl.

Melt the Olivani (microwave on low for 1 minute), then rub it into
the dry ingredients until mixed through.

Add the dates.

Add milk and knead in the bowl. Consistency should be a little more
moist than bread dough.

Separate the mixture into chunks to make 12 and pat between hands to
shape into balls. Don't compress too much. Should be just larger than
golf balls to end up with 12 of them.

Dust each ball with flour by rolling it in a separate bowl with a
little flour, then pat the excess off.

Squish each ball down to roughly an 1-1/2" thick, then arrange on an
oven tray.

Bake at 220?C for 10 minutes.

Notes:

1 cup of milk makes the dough about bread-like, slightly dry. We added
about another 1/4 cup, which was very sticky, but still workable when
I floured my hands. Probably wouldn't want more milk than that.

Dusting the tops with soy milk does make them non-floury and makes
them brown up a little. You need to cover most of the tops since the
milk doesn't spread out much.
