Mix Dry Ingredients

Step 3:

In a large bowl, whisk some flour, salt and baking powder until well combined.

Cut in Butter

Use a box grater to shred butter into the flour mixture. Toss the butter around so each shred is well coated.

Add the flaxseed “egg”, soy milk and sugar to your flour-butter mix. Stir together until mostly combined. 

Create Dough

Step 5:

Toss in shredded cheese and chopped chives. Continue stirring until the cheese and chives are spread evenly.

Shape Scones

Flour your countertop, then place the dough on it. Press or roll the dough to about 1-inch thick and cut into 8 or 10 scones. 

Bake and Serve

Step 7:

Preheat oven and transfer cut scones onto a baking tray. Brush with butter. Bake at 350 F for 15 min. 

Cool to room temperature, then transfer to an airtight container.  Refrigerate for up to 1 week.
