3-Ingredient Scones

INGREDIENTS

2 cups fresh self-rising flour, plus 1-2 tbsp. of additional flour if necessary

2 tbsp. sugar, plus 1 tbsp.

1 1/2 cups canned room-temperature coconut milk, stirred, plus 1 tbsp.

OR

2 cups fresh all-purpose flour, plus 1-2 tbsp. of additional flour if necessary

2 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. salt

2 tbsp. sugar, plus 1 tsp.

1 1/2 cups canned room-temperature coconut milk, stirred, plus 1 tbsp.

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

2. In a medium bowl, mix flour, sugar, and any additional stir-ins together.

3. Stir in coconut milk until just combined (don't over-mix!).

4. Dump the mixture onto a floured surface and very gently fold 4-5 times until mixture is a nice even texture and no longer sticky. Do not over-mix the dough or it will become tough. The texture of the dough is dependant upon the additional flour added during this step. If your dough is still too sticky, add more flour and fold a couple more times. The dough should be a lovely texture that is not sticky, but also not dry. Be very gentle with it.

5. Shape into an 9-inch square and cut into 8 triangles using a pizza cutter or sharp knife. It should be about an inch thick. Keep pieces together.

6. Brush the additional tablespoon of coconut milk on the tops and sprinkle with the additional sugar.

7. Bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet, on the top rack of the oven, for 17-20 minutes.

8. Let cool for 2-3 minutes before adding any optional glazes.

9. Serve immediately with jams, butters, fresh fruit, tea, or coffee.
