Vegan Pomegranate Coconut Cream Scones

[The Moose]

It seems like most recipes call for either a whole can of coconut milk, or just a few tablespoons. This is a recipe I use for when I have at least half a can of coconut milk left over and I don't know what to do with it. I adapted it from the Joy of Cooking, and added a few touches of my own.



Vegan Pomegranate Coconut Cream Scones

1 3/4 c flour
3 tsp baking powder
1 Tbs sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/4 c coconut milk (if you have less than this, you can always add some nondairy milk)
A few tbs pomegranate jam (or other jam of your choice)

Note:This is not a time for "low-fat" or "lite" coconut milk-- this recipe relies on the thick cream that hangs out at the top of the can.

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Combine dry ingredients in a bowl. Make a well in the center and add the coconut milk. Stir until just combined-- not too much. You can carefully pat dough to 3/4" thick and cut it into shapes, or use my preferred method of just plopping out little piles of dough. Once on the cookie sheet, make a divot on the top of each scone-to-be and spoon in a bit of jam. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden.

Share and enjoy!
