Vegan Matcha Scones: Green enjoyment for all Matcha fans

Are you a true matcha fan and love using the green matcha powder not only in your tea but also in your baked goods? Then we have something very special for you: a delicious and vegan matcha scones recipe with an intense flavor. Sounds heavenly, doesn't it?

Making Matcha Scones

Before we embark on our baking adventure, a little prep is required. Grab a baking sheet and line it with parchment paper. Make sure you have all the ingredients ready, especially the cold butter (a vegan alternative in this case, of course), as it will give the scones the perfect texture.

Ingredients for the Matcha Scones:

• 2 tsp matcha powder
• 250 g flour
• 50 g sugar (or see our blog post about sweeteners for matcha tea for alternative suggestions)
• 1 pinch of salt
• 60 g cold, vegan butter
• 100 ml plant milk
• 1 tsp baking powder

And here's how it works:

1. In a large bowl, mix together flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and fresh matcha.
2. Add the cold butter in small pieces and mix it into the dry ingredients with your hands or a pastry blender until the mixture becomes crumbly.
3. Gradually add the plant-based milk and knead into a firm dough. Don't overknead, or the scones won't be as fluffy.
4. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 2 cm thick. Here's a quick tip: Roll the cutter in flour to prevent the dough from sticking.
5. Cut out the scones and place them on the prepared baking tray.
6. Bake at 200 °C (180 °C fan oven) for about 12-15 minutes until the baked scones have a light golden color.

Voilà! Your fresh scones are ready to be served. One more tip: They taste especially good with vegan butter and strawberry jam.
