Steps:
- Preheat convection oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Stir orange juice and lemon juice together in a small bowl; add enough water, if necessary, to equal 7 tablespoons liquid.
- Stir juice mixture, coconut milk, orange zest, lemon zest, chia seeds, and vanilla extract together in a bowl; set aside until chia seeds gel, about 10 minutes.
- Combine flour, sugar, baking soda, ginger, cardamom, and salt in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until just-combined. Add cold coconut oil pieces and process until mixture resembles wet sand. Pour chia mixture into flour mixture; pulse until dough begins to come together.
- Transfer dough to a bowl and add pecans, almonds, and hemp; knead with your hands until nuts and seeds are evenly distributed. Divide dough into 2 pieces, and flatten each piece into a 1-inch thick disc. Cut each disc into 8 wedges, and places wedges on prepared baking sheets.
- Bake in the preheated oven until tops spring back when pressed, 30 to 35 minutes.

Another flavor version of a previous scone recipe I've used. This one has the food processor technique I've adapted to use chilled coconut oil rather than hand grating frozen coconut oil.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Zest lemons. Juice lemons into a measuring cup, adding water as needed, until 7 tablespoons liquid is reached. Combine lemon zest, lemon juice, coconut milk, chia seeds, and vanilla extract together in a bowl; set aside to thicken, about 10 minutes.
- Dice chilled coconut oil on a work surface. Combine flour, sugar, cream of tartar, baking soda, ground ginger, and salt together in the bowl of a food processor; pulse to combine. Add coconut oil and pulse just until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add coconut milk mixture and pulse just until dough begins to clump and form a ball.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface; gently knead in pecans and hemp seeds to distribute. Separate dough into 2 equal portions; pat or roll each into a 1-inch thick round. Cut into 8 wedge-shaped pieces and place onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in preheated oven until tops spring back when lightly pressed, 25 to 30 minutes.

Tips:
- To make sure the scones are perfectly cooked, use a toothpick to check their center - it should come out clean when inserted.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by mixing 1 cup of plant-based milk with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice.
- For a sweeter scone, add an extra tablespoon of sugar to the dough.
- For a tangier scone, add an extra tablespoon of lemon zest to the dough.
- To make the scones gluten-free, use gluten-free flour instead of all-purpose flour.
- To make the scones nut-free, omit the chia seeds.
- For a healthier scone, use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour.
- To make the scones more decadent, brush them with melted vegan butter before baking.
