The Full Package.

Who needs a holiday in England when you have Top Gear, breakfast tea, and this...

... traditional English scone with homemade strawberry jam, and cashew cream.

1 1/2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/4 cup vegan butter (cut in)

1 cup of non-dairy milk, curdled.

Add flour into desired consistency

Bake at 350F for 15-20 minutes (depending on size). When done, the tops should be firm and slightly crisp.

Jam

Mash/blend 2 cups strawberries to desired consistency for jam

Add 1/2 cup of sugar

1 Tbls cornstarch

1 Tbls water (mixed with cornstarch)

Add cornstarch/water mixture to strawberries/sugar.

Bring to boil, then let simmer for 10 minutes. Stirring often.

Cream

4 oz cahews

1/2 cup of water

1/2 tsp maple syrup

a few drops of vanilla extract

Put cashews and a 1/4 cup water in food processor. Add syrup, vanilla, and more water until desires taste/consistency.

It's suuuuuper good.

New Adventures in the Oven!

I remade the cinnamon raisin bagels with some of the leftover Dough I froze before I left for NY. They came out a little flat this time but still tasted alright.



I also made a couple of maple syrup walnut bagels, too. I ate them up before I had time to get my camera out, though. ;)

My second first for the day was a batch of mixed berry lemon scones.
