Instructions

1
|
Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
2
|
Zest the lemons in a small bowl and set it aside.
3
|
In a large mixing bowl with a handheld mixer, whisk the aquafaba for about 1 min till it gets foamy.
4
|
Add milk, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla. Mix till well combined.
5
|
In a large mixing bowl, add the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk well.
6
|
Add the cold cubed butter and mix it with the flour ingredients using a pastry cutter. Or you can use your fingers till the mixture is crumbly. There will be some large butter chunks.
7
|
Pour the liquid ingredients into the flour/butter mixture. Mix all the ingredients with a rubber spatula or bowl scraper until it forms a dough.
8
|
On a clean surface, work the dough some more with flour on your hands. Add more flour to the dough if it's too sticky, 1 tablespoon at a time. Form the dough into a 6-7 inch disc shape and slightly flatten it.
9
|
With a sharp knife or pastry cutter, cut the dough into 8 triangles.
10
|
Place the scones on the cookie sheet, at least 1 inch apart, and bake for 14-16 mins, till slightly golden around the edges. Let the scones cool for about 5 mins.
11
|
Turn the scone upside-down and dip it into the glaze, covering the entire top and edges. Place it on a cooling rack for the glaze to drip. You can also pour the glaze onto the scones.
12
|
Add the powdered sugar, lemon juice, 1 tablespoon milk, and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk well; if the glaze is too thick, add 1 tablespoon of milk.
13
|
Stir in the lemon zest.

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Keep Butter Frozen 🧊
    Use butter straight from the freezer and work quickly to maintain cold pockets, which create the signature flaky, tender scone texture that shatters when bitten.
  • Aquafaba as Egg Replacer 🥚
    Whisk aquafaba (liquid from canned chickpeas) for 1-2 minutes before using to add air, creating a light and airy crumb structure comparable to traditional egg-based scones.
  • Zest Before Juicing 🍋
    Always zest your lemons before cutting them in half to juice, maximizing the fragrant zest yield and preventing the juice from making the skin slippery and difficult to zest.
  • Don't Overmix the Dough 🙌
    Mix the dry ingredients and wet ingredients separately, then combine with minimal stirring—overmixing develops gluten and creates tough, dense scones instead of tender, crumbly ones.
  • Glaze While Warm ✨
    Drizzle the lemon glaze over scones while they're still warm from the oven so it sets into a glossy coating that adheres beautifully and enhances the citrus flavor impact.
