- Serves 8
Creamy and almondy scones. Great for breakfast, brunch or a snack.
Ingredients
- 1 cup almonds, toasted shopping list
- 2 Tb. brown sugar shopping list
- 1 egg shopping list
- 1/3 cup cold heavy cream shopping list
- 1/4 cup buttermilk shopping list
- 1 3/4 cup all purpose flour shopping list
- 1 Tb. baking powder shopping list
- 1/4 tsp. salt shopping list
- 1 stick, cold butter, cut into small pieces shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 400.
- Finely grind the nuts in a food processor with the sugar.
- Stir the egg, cream and buttermilk together.
- Combine the flour, ground almonds, baking powder and salt together in a large bowl. Add the butter and with your fingertips or a pastry blender mix the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture ressembles coarse crumbs.
- Pour the liquid ingredients in the bowl and stir just until the dough comes together. I usually do everything by hand but you can use a fork.Gently and quickly knead the dough and turn it onto a floured board. Roll out the dough to about 1 inch thick and cut out desired shapes with a cookie cutter.
- Place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet and bake for about 20 minutes.
