Scones are the quintessential British bake, perfect for afternoon teas, snacks or breakfast. Of the many variations out there, today we will show you how to make gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan lemonade scones.

As usual, we try our best to design or adapt recipes to make them as healthy as possible and suitable for everybody, by using allergy-free and diet-friendly ingredients. You can look for more tasty recipes like this on our free Smart Search tool.

In fact, scones are usually baked with butter and milk, which we replaced with vegetable oil and almond milk for a dairy-free variation. They are also made of wheat flour which we substituted with oat flour and buckwheat flour to make our scones gluten-free. And finally, we avoided using eggs to keep the recipe vegan.

So if you are a scones aficionado or just want to bake something new, keep reading as we will show you how to make them in the healthiest way possible!

In a separate bowl, prepare the lemonade by mixing the lemon juice with maple syrup and then add the almond milk (1).

Tips

We recommend you prepare this homemade scones no more that a day in advance as they dry more quickly because they are gluten-free and have not butter.
For a nut-free version, replace almond milk with other plant-based milk like soy milk or oat milk.
You can swap rapeseed oil with other vegetable oils like olive oil or coconut oil in the same ratio.
