Ingredients: Glaze: 3 tablespoons butter 1/4 cup sugar Scones: 2 cups flour 1 tablspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup sugar 1 cup dried fruit 1 1/2 cups heavy cream Instructions: Pre-heat oven to 425°F. Place 3 tablespoons butter in a small microwavable cup, and add 1/4 cup sugar on top. Microwave mixture for 1 minute, or until butter is melted. Set aside. For 8 scones, use 2 cups all-purpose flour. Add to that 1 tablespoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 cup sugar - mix well. Add 1 cup dried fruit - perhaps 1/2 cup raisins plus 1/2 cup nuts? Be creative. Mix well. Pour over 1 and 1/2 cup heavy cream and mix again. Knead dough at least ten times and shape into 8 equal-sized dough balls. Place evenly on ungreased baking sheet and press down gently with fork on top of each scone. Spread equal amounts of previously set-aside sugar mixture atop each scone and bake for 15 minutes. Enjoy. Notes: Our breakfasts have been described as a feast for the eye as well as the palate! |
