Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups Coconut oil (solid state)
• 1 tablespoon Flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed + 3 tablespoons water)
• 0.75 cups Unsweetened almond milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Turbinado sugar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, salt, and granulated sugar.

Step 3

Add the solid coconut oil to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the coconut oil into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseed and water to make a flax egg. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes gel-like.

Step 5

Add the flax egg, almond milk, and vanilla extract to the flour mixture. Gently fold until just combined, being careful not to over-mix.

Step 6

Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and shape it into a circle about 1 inch thick.

Step 7

Using a sharp knife, cut the dough into 8 equal wedges and place them onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 8

Sprinkle the top of each scone with turbinado sugar for added crunch.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown and firm to the touch.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
