Receta Cherry Spice Scones
Ingredientes
- I start the scone dough in my food processor because it is so
- fast but they can be made just as easily in a large bowl by cutting the
- butter in with a pastry blender or even 2 knifes held between the
- fingers.
- In a food processor, combine:
- 3 cups flour
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
- 1/8 tsp ground cloves
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 6 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- Cut in:
- ¾ cup very cold butter, cubed
- Pulse process until this mixture resembles a coarse meal. It is very
- important that pea sized pieces of butter remain in this mixture. Remove
- to a large bowl and toss in:
- Mix together:
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup milk
- Pour this over the surface of the dry mixture. Toss all together gently
- with a fork only enough to form a dough ball. When the flour is almost
- incorporated, fold in:
- 1 1/2 cups pitted cherries (fresh or frozen)
- Frozen cherries work well too because they are less delicate and easier to
- incorporate into the scone dough It is important that you work this
- dough as little as possible or the finished scones will be too dense
- and heavy. Roll to 1 inch thickness and cut out scones with biscuit
- cutter or in triangles with a sharp knife and place on parchment lined
- baking sheet.
- If desired you can brush the tops of the scones with an egg wash of 1
- egg beaten together with 1 tbsp water. You can sprinkle the tops with
