This recipe was inspired by the orange cranberry scones they offer at Starbucks. They were one of my mom’s favorite desserts there, until she found the recipe and was able to make them at home. She passed the recipe along to me and I was able to make it plant-based to enjoy. These scones are a great sweet treat because the whole batch only contains 7 teaspoons of sugar. That’s almost less than ½ a teaspoon per scone, and that’s a whole lot less than your average dessert. The glaze adds a little bit more sugar, but it is always optional.
If you’re wondering if it’s possible to make a steaming bowl of blissfully creamy tomato soup without dairy, this recipe is your answer.
