Vegan Lemon Blueberry Scones

I was definitely skeptical about the prospect of vegan scones, but these have definitely cured that skepticism. They're light and fluffy on the inside and crusty and sweet on the outside, just like scones should be. And yes - they were super easy to make!

3 cups whole wheat flour
2 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tbsp salt
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 tbsp apple sauce
3 tbsp coconut oil
1 1/4 cup almond milk (or a different non-dairy milk)
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup frozen blueberries
zest of 1 lemon

Preheat oven to 400. 

Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl. Fold wet ingredients in until just combined. Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto baking sheet, spreading evenly. Sprinkle some brown sugar on top for browning (this is totally optional). Bake for about 15 minutes. 

See? So simple. There's nothing to it!
