Scones and Potatoes
I did a breakfast for dinner sort of thing the other day, with scones and maple-baked potatoes and carrots. The scones are actually the chive spelt biscuits from Vegan Brunch, except that I replaced the spelt flour with standard white, adding about a cup to create a dough instead of a batter, and cut them like scones. I think I cooked a bit longer then recommended as well.
Really good served warm with some Earth Balance…but then I bet you already knew that. I sprinkled some dry
chives on the plate as well…just for a bit of decoration, so feel free to skip that step.
I also simplified an old classic, tossing some potatoes and carrots in a mixture of maple syrup, water, S+P and then baking for just over an hour at 400F.
Pretty much anything baked with maple syrup is a win around here…is it the same for you?

Interesting stuff! I went to England this summer and had some afternoon tea with a scone, and it was absolutely delicious I thought I’d try and make my own last week. I might have deviated from the norm though – I found a internet site of random scone recipes here and made 4 different ones! My friends were so happy when I brought them round for tea and scones, complete with real whipped cream. Great fun!
