Vegetable Scones

These scones are a nutritious and healthy alternative to regular scones and a great accompaniment to soup.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup SR Flour
• 1 cup mashed vegetables (I used potato, carrot, pumpkin and broccoli)
• Half cup milk (I used rice milk)
• 1/3 cup oil
• Half cup grated cheese (I used lactose-free)

Method:

Preheat oven to 220 degrees Celsius.

Steam vegetables and mash with grated cheese. When cooled slightly, mix with flour, milk and oil.

Roll out on a floured board and cut into scones. Spray or brush with vegetable oil.

Place in oven and cook for 20 minutes.

Notes:

The moisture of the mixture will depend on what vegetables are used. Root vegetables give a drier mix; hence less flour/more milk may be needed.

Milk: rice, soy, almond milk can also be used.

Cheese: if you are intolerant to lactose, lactose-free milk can be used.
