Ingredients
Tofu Filling












Dough












Instructions
Step 1
In a blender, combine the coconut milk and cornstarch until smooth. Then, add the tofu cut into small pieces along with the yacon syrup, lime juice, and coconut paste.
Blend everything together thoroughly until you achieve a smooth consistency. Use a spatula if needed to help mix the ingredients well.
Transfer the filling into a glass bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight. Once chilled, give it another good stir until it is uniform.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the green buckwheat flour, gluten-free flour blend, almond flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix these dry ingredients until well distributed.
Add the yacon syrup, melted coconut oil, and warm plant milk to the dry mixture. Combine until a dough forms. Let it rest for about 10 minutes, allowing the almond flour to absorb extra moisture.
If the dough feels too wet, you can add an additional 5-10 grams (0.2-0.35 ounces) of milk.
Step 3
Roll out the dough on parchment paper to a thickness of about 0.5 centimeters (0.2 inches). Using a round cookie cutter, cut out circles with a diameter of 10 centimeters (4 inches); you should get around 14 scones.
Place 1.5 to 2 tablespoons of the tofu filling on one half of each dough circle. Gently fold over the other half and press down lightly to seal. Brush the tops with a little yacon syrup for a lovely glaze.
Step 4
Preheat your oven to 170 degrees Celsius (340 degrees Fahrenheit). Bake the scones for about 10-12 minutes or until they turn a beautiful golden brown.
Allow the scones to cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy your delicious vegan tofu scones with friends or family!
Servings
Equipment
A good quality blender with an S-shaped blade works best for making the creamy tofu filling. It ensures that all ingredients blend smoothly without lumps.



Line your baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the pastries from sticking and make cleanup easier. Ensure it's large enough to hold all your pastries.



This will help you roll out the dough evenly to the right thickness. If you don't have one, using a wine bottle wrapped in plastic can also work.



A cutter with a diameter of 10 cm is ideal for shaping your pastries. A glass or jar can serve as a substitute if you're in a pinch.
Variations
Faq
- What if my dough is too sticky?
If your dough feels sticky, try adding a little more almond flour or gluten-free flour until it reaches a manageable consistency. It’s always a good idea to let it rest for 10 minutes as suggested, as this helps the flours absorb moisture.
- Can I make the filling in advance?
Yes! You can prepare the tofu filling ahead of time. Just store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Give it a stir before using, as it may settle.
- What if I don’t have coconut oil?
If you’re out of coconut oil, you can substitute it with any neutral oil, like grapeseed or sunflower oil. Just remember that it may slightly alter the flavor.
- How can I store leftover pastries?
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week. They can also be frozen for longer storage - just thaw before enjoying!
- Why did my pastries spread too much?
Pastries can spread if the dough is too warm when going into the oven. Be sure to chill your dough before rolling it out, and ideally, chill your shaped pastries until firm before baking.
- Can I add chocolate chips to the filling?
Absolutely! Stir in some dairy-free chocolate chips after blending the filling for a delicious chocolate twist. Make sure to adjust the sweetness so it doesn’t become overly sweet!
