How to Make Cinnamon Scones
Ingredients:
2 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
2 T. brown sugar
4 t. baking powder
1/4 t. salt
1 t. cinnamon
1/2 t. ground cloves
1/3 c. butter, cut into pieces
2 eggs
3/4 c. whipping cream
1/2 c. chopped dates
1/4 c. chopped nuts, walnuts or pecans are best
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and cloves.
- Cut in butter, using a fork or pastry blender, until mixture resembles small peas.
- In a small bowl, combine eggs and whipping cream.
- Add egg mixture to the dry ingredients.
- Mix with a fork until mixture is just blended.
- Add dates and nuts.
- Work the dough with your hands just until the fruit is evenly distributed and the dough is nearly smooth. Overworking the dough will cause the scones to be tough.
- Pat the dough into an 8 inch pie pan until it fills the pan.
- Cut into 8-12 wedges.
- Place the wedges on an ungreased baking sheet, about 1 inch apart.
- Bake for 13-15 min. at 400 degrees F.
