Why not combining strawberries and chocolate chips in a scone? Probably the best combination for summer. I found this vegan chocolate chip scone recipe on the internet and had left over strawberries - so I decided to do vegan strawberry chocolate chip scones (YES, I'm fancy like that). Let's begin:
Ingredients:
3 cups flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 cup sugar
8 tbsp cold(!) vegan butter/magarine (makes the dough flaky)
vegan chocolate chips (to taste, I used about 1 bag)
1 to 1 1/4 cups milk (I use almond milk because it's what i have on hand)
1tbsp white vinegar or aplle cider vinegar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 to 2 hand full strawberries
Preheat your oven as always (to about 180°C).
Mix all dry ingredients except chocolate chips together. Mix the slices of butter with your hand into the flour mixture. Mix it very well until the butter disappears.
In a seperate bowl, mix milk and vinegar and let stand for about 2 minutes or until the milk curdles (we want that). Mix vanilla extract with your wet ingredients and pour wet mixture to dry mixture and blend. The dough should be sticky not too wet, neither too dry, add a little more wet mixture or a little less according to your feeling.
Add chocolate chips and washed and chopped strawberries. Blend briefly.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 2 minutes. Then flatten the dough into a circle and slice into triangles.
Bake for about 20 minutes or until scones are golden and smell lovely.
Let cool before serving and enjoy this delicious british treat with a touch of summer! (Very yummy with a cup of tea)
