Juicy fresh blueberries burst through a tender, flaky crumb in every wedge of these scones, thanks to a cold, grated fat worked into the dough until it turns shaggy and crumbly just before baking. Oat milk keeps the dough rich and moist while a quick brush-and-sprinkle finish gives the tops that classic golden, sparkly crust. The wedges bake up tall with crisp edges and a soft, pillowy center — the kind of scone that's just as good with morning coffee as it is for an afternoon treat. Since everything comes together in one bowl with a simple fold-and-cut method, there's no fancy equipment or technique required, just a light hand with the dough. This one is a great pick for a gluten free breakfast spread, and it holds its shape and flavor beautifully whether you serve it warm from the oven or at room temperature the next day.

Chef's tip
Choose a gluten-free baking blend labeled 1:1 or cup-for-cup and use the same amount. Almond and coconut flour won't work the same way.
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
½ cup vegan butter, frozen
¾ cup oat milk, cold
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup fresh blueberries

For brushing

1 tbsp oat milk, for brushing
1 tbsp coarse sugar, for sprinkling (optional)

Instructions

1
Place the frozen vegan butter in the freezer for at least 15 minutes before starting if not already frozen solid. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C).
2
Whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl until evenly combined.
