Vegan Classic Blueberry Scones

Fresh blueberries burst through a tender, flaky wedge in every bite of these classic scones, with a golden, craggy top that's a little crisp at the edges and soft in the middle. The dough comes together fast, gets folded gently so the crumb stays light instead of dense, then chills briefly before baking so the wedges hold their shape and puff up beautifully in the oven. A sprinkle of coarse sugar on top adds a little crunch and sparkle, giving these that bakery-case look without any fuss. They're best pulled from the oven while the tops are golden and the centers just set, then cooled for a few minutes before you dig in. This one's a genuinely solid pick for a vegan brunch spread, and it reheats well the next morning if you've got extras.

¼ cup granulated sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, frozen
Chef's tip
Use a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one.
½ cup heavy cream, plus 2 tbsp for brushing
Chef's tip
Use unsweetened dairy-free heavy cream in cooked sauces, soups, and ganache. For whipped uses, choose a product labeled whippable.

1 large egg
Chef's tip
For each egg, mix 1 tbsp ground flaxseed with 3 tbsp water and let it sit until it thickens. It holds ingredients together but won't make things rise - best in pancakes, muffins, and cookies.
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 ½ cups fresh blueberries
2 tbsp coarse sugar, for topping (optional)
