A simple scone recipe, perfect with coffee and breakfast!
Ingredients
¼ cup granulated sugar
2 tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp kosher salt
2 tsp cinnamon
3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
½ cup (1 stick) chilled, unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 large egg, beaten
1¼ cup heavy cream (plus more for brushing)
Demerara or raw sugar, for sprinkling
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F.
In a large bowl, combine sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and 3 cups of flour.
Add chopped butter, working pieces into the mixture by hand, until evenly distributed, and only pea-size pieces are left.
Add egg, and cream, mixing with a fork until just combined.
Once formed into a shaggy dough (it may look a little dry, that's okay), lightly knead the dough until it just comes together (you don't want to overwork the dough).
On a lightly floured surface, pat the dough into a 1 inch thick circle, and cut into 8 wedges.
Place each wedge on a parchment lined baking sheet.
Brush the dough with cream, and sprinkle with demerara sugar.
Bake scones for 25-30 minutes, until lightly golden brown.
