Very Good! I had a little trouble getting the mix to come together at first, but it worked out perfectly. They were wonderful! -
I get special requests for this scone recipe all the time. I interchange the cranberries with dates, nuts - whatever. It all tastes good. And I have also made this with Ener-G Replacer. Not quite as moist as tofu, but still very tasty.

I am a young aspiring chef from Montreal. I'm a student cook and I work as a barista (fun times!!!) and I have seriously busy days that lasts forever, so now i love quick fix recipes that takes no time to whip up at 11 pm when i get home.
Well i was vegan, now I am back to an lacto-ovo diet for the sake of my class. I have to taste meat at school, and I'm ok with that. But at home, only farmer eggs, happy cow milk that comes from small farms.... and yummy honey from my hometown, Percé, Quebec.
