Orange Scones and Orange Marmalade with Orange Essential Oil and Vegan Options

Orange Scones Recipe with Orange Essential oil

This Orange Scones recipe with orange marmalade features Young Living orange essential oil.

The scone recipe's beautiful citrusy flavour from Young Living’s Orange essential oil.

NOTE: This is a vegetarian friendly recipe but not vegan friendly. You could use coconut oil in place of the butter, coconut cream in place of the cream and a chia egg, however the scones won’t be as light. Use coconut sugar in place of the raw sugar; the scones will be a darker colour and not quite as light.  

Serving Size 14-16 Prep Time 25 minutes Cook Time 20 minutes Total Time 45 minutes

Ingredients

• 2½ cups flour or gluten-free flour

• 2 tbsp organic raw sugar or coconut sugar

• 2 tsp baking powder

• 1 tbsp grated orange zest (orange peel)

• 1/3 cup cold butter, cut in small cubes

• ¾ cup orange marmalade (reserve ¼ cup for glaze)

• ¼ cup milk or coconut milk

• 3 drops Young Living Orange essential oil (to taste)

• 1 egg
  

  Optional for Serving

• Whipped cream or whipped coconut cream

• Butter

• Orange marmalade/jam or other jams

• Fresh fruit
  

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 200C degrees and line a baking tray with baking paper.

2. In a medium-large bowl mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder and orange zest. Cut the butter into the flour mixture using a pastry blender or you can use two knives and cut the butter in a crisscross method. Cut in the butter until the mixture has butter pieces the size of small peas.

3. Then add in ½ cup of the marmalade, milk, orange essential oil and the egg and gently stir until a dough forms.

4. Place the dough onto a lightly floured surface like a marble board or chopping board (you can cover the board with baking paper, if you like for easy clean-up) and knead the dough approx. 10 times or until it comes together in a smooth ball.

5. Form the dough into a round circle approx. 3.5cm thick and then cut the dough into 12 wedges and pull them apart to separate slightly. You can also use a biscuit or cookie cutter to cut the dough into 3.8cm rounds.

6. Bake the scones for 15 – 20 minutes or until golden. Remove scones from the oven and brush the warm scones with the remaining marmalade/jam and serve immediately. You can serve with more marmalade/jam and cream, if you like. Store them in an airtight container for 2 – 3 days.
