Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400F.
- Combine all dry ingredients, including poppy seeds and lemon zest.
- Add the chilled coconut oil to the dry ingredients. Use your hands to cut the coconut oil into the dry ingredients. Continue working the coconut oil into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles fine crumbs. (I find it helpful to chill my hands by rinsing them under very cold water for a minute or so. This will help you break up the coconut oil without melting it.)
- Add the soy milk and use a fork to stir the ingredients. Do NOT overmix. As soon as the mixture is just combined, turn it onto a floured kitchen counter. Knead about 8-12 times before rolling out on a well-floured counter. The dough should be about 1" thick. Cut into rustic triangles (about the size of a deck of cards.)
- Transfer to a parchment paper lined baking sheet (leaving at least 1/2" between scones) and bake for 10 minutes. They should be golden brown.
- Cool before glazing.
- Combine the warm soy milk, coconut oil, lemon juice, icing sugar, and lemon zest. Whisk until combined. Add more soy milk for a thinner glaze (good for dunking the entire scone), add more icing sugar for a thicker glaze (great for drizzling). Once the scones are cooled, drizzle or dunk in glaze. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
- Sift the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt into a large bowl. Cut in margarine until the mixture is the consistency of large grains of sand. I like to use my hands to rub the margarine into the flour. Stir in poppy seeds, lemon zest and lemon juice. Combine the soy milk and water, and gradually stir into the dry ingredients until the batter is moistened, but still thick like biscuit dough. You may not need all of the liquid.
- Spoon 1/4 cup sized plops of batter onto the greased baking sheet so they are about 3 inches apart.
- Bake for 10 to 15 minutes the preheated oven, until golden.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Sift first four ingredients together in a bowl; cut in butter with pastry blender.
- Mix the honey, eggs, grated lemon peel, lemon juice and water in another bowl.
- Add liquid mixture to the dry ingredients and stir with fork.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead 10 times.
- Pat dough into round shape 1" thick.
- Brush with lemon juice; sprinkle top with 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar.
- Cut into wedges and place edges onto ungreased baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes or until golden.
Tips:
- For the best results, use cold vegan butter or coconut oil. This will help to keep the scones light and flaky.
- Be sure to mix the dough until it just comes together. Over-mixing will result in tough scones.
- If the dough is too wet, add more flour. If the dough is too dry, add more liquid.
- Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1/2 inch. If the dough is too thick, the scones will be dense. If the dough is too thin, the scones will be crispy.
- Cut the scones into wedges or rounds. If you cut the scones too small, they will be dry. If you cut the scones too large, they will be undercooked in the center.
- Bake the scones in a preheated oven until they are golden brown. If the scones are undercooked, they will be doughy. If the scones are overcooked, they will be dry.
- Let the scones cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help them to set and firm up.
Conclusion:
These lemon poppy seed scones are a delicious and easy-to-make vegan and gluten-free treat. They are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. With their light and fluffy texture, zesty lemon flavor, and crunchy poppy seeds, these scones are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
