Plant-Based Lemon Chia Scones deliver a bright, citrusy punch with a tender, crumbly bite and a whisper of nuttiness from chia seeds. A tangy lemon glaze adds a sweet-sharp finish that highlights the zest in every bite. Serve them warm for breakfast, brunch, or an afternoon snack alongside tea or coffee.

1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2

Combine whole wheat flour, oat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, chia seeds, and white sugar in a bowl. Cut in the coconut oil until the mixture is crumbly. Stir in soy milk, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons lemon zest until a dough forms.
3

Transfer the dough to a bowl and knead in the bowl until workable, about 8 times. Gently shape it into a ball and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Press into a circle about 1 inch thick; cut into 10 wedges. Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet.
4

Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are lightly golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes.
5

Mix confectioners' sugar, 1 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon lemon zest in a small bowl. Drizzle or spread the frosting over the scones while still warm.
