How to Make Vegan Rosemary Chocolate Chunk Scones

Vegan scones are just as easy to make as traditional scones, we are just replacing the butter and cream with coconut oil and non-dairy milk.

You can also use chilled vegan butter and thicker non-dairy milks such as coconut milk.

To make vegan scones,

Start by preheating your oven to 400°F and line a baking tray with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
Next, in a mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients
Add in the chilled coconut oil and, using a fork, pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the oil into the flour mixture until a coarse meal forms.
Pour in the non-dairy milk, starting with 1 cup. Add the vanilla and chocolate chunks, stirring until a moist dough forms. Add more non-dairy milk if necessary to get all the flour to combine into the dough. Pour the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead the dough briefly.
Form the dough into a 1-inch-thick round and then cut the round into 8 triangles. Alternatively, you can make 16 smaller scones. Carefully pull the wedges apart and place them on your prepared baking sheet 2 inches apart from each other.
Bake the scones until the tops are slightly golden brown, about 18 to 20 minutes.
Remove the scones from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving.

How to Store Vegan Scones

Scones never last long in our home.

In fact, scones taste best when they are enjoyed right out of the oven, in my opinion.

However, if you do happy to have leftovers, they'll still be amazing a day or two later.

We often place any leftovers in an airtight container and store them on the counter at room temperature for 2-3 days.

If you think you'll need them to last longer, you should store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 1 week or in the freezer for 2-3 months.

How to Reheat Scones

I love harder, flaky scones, so I usually don't reheat my scones but instead enjoy them cold.

If you prefer a warm scone, simply microwave one for 20-30 seconds or until warmed through.
