If I could only have one sweet treat for the rest of my life, it would be a scone. I enjoy baking them, eating them, and most importantly having scones at brunch with friends. Double up this batch, invite a group of friends over and enjoy an amazing spring afternoon outside.

- 2 tbs vegan margarine

Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 425F; spray cookie sheet with nonstick cooking spray, or parchment paper or my new favorite: silpat pad!!
Step 2
Combine dry ingredients and walnuts in a large bowl, mix well. (break the walnuts down by pulsing them in a coffee/spie gridner)
Step 3
Melt margarine and combine in a small bowl with soymilk, and oil; add to dry ingredients and stir until just mixed. (allow the soy/almond milk and vinegar to sit for a few minutes)
Step 4
Turn dough onto lightly floured surface and knead a few times to form into a ball; flatten dough into an 8-in.-diameter circle and cut into eight wedges.
Step 5
Sprinkle the brown sugar on top of the scones, place more walnuts on top
Step 6
Put wedges on cookie sheet and bake 12 to 15 minutes, until lightly browned. Cool slightly on rack.
