Banana Nut Scones With Maple Glaze Recipes

BANANA NUT SCONES WITH MAPLE GLAZE

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the chickpea flour, baking powder and cinnamon.
• Add the coconut oil to the flour and use a fork to mix into the flour. Mix until the coconut oil is well combined. Your mixture should be powdery & dry.
• In a smaller mixing bowl, mash the bananas until almost all lumps are gone. Mix in the coconut milk and sugar until combined.
• Pour the banana mixture into the dry ingredients and mix together. Stir in the walnuts. You should have a thick sticky batter. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the coconut oil to harden so it doesn't spread too much when baking.
• Preheat oven to 375°F/190°C. Lightly grease or line a large baking tray with baking paper.
• When you're ready to bake scoop out large spoonfuls of the dough and drop onto your prepared tray. Leave at least 2 inches in between dough leaving a little room for spreading as they bake. Bake for 15-20 minutes - the tops with be golden and the scones firm.
• As the scones are in the oven prepare your glaze. Simple mix together the sugar, maple and almond milk together in a small bowl or cup. Mix until no lumps remain and you're left with a thick glaze.
• Let the scones cool on the baking tray for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cool drizzle over the glaze and enjoy!
• These are best enjoyed fresh the day you make them. If you have any leftovers I recommend warming them up in the microwave or on a low heat in the oven before eating them and they'll be good as new.

BANANA NUT SCONES WITH MAPLE GLAZE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, beat the mashed bananas, yogurt, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract together. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together. Grate the frozen butter.
• Toss the grated butter into the flour mixture and combine it with a pastry cutter, 2 forks, a food processor, or until the mixture resembles a coarse meal.
• Set aside.
• Drizzle wet ingredients over flour mixture, add the walnuts, and then toss the mixture together with a rubber spatula until everything appears moistened.
• Try not to overwork the dough at any point. The dough will be sticky and a little wet.
• Drop scones, ¼ cup of dough each, at least 3-inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
• Brush the scones with milk, then top with a little coarse sugar, if desired for extra crunch.
• Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until lightly golden and cooked through.
• Remove from the oven and cool while making the icing. The scones taste even better after they cool down.
• Icing:
• In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and maple syrup together, whisking occasionally.
• Once the butter has melted, remove from the heat and whisk in the sifted confectioners' sugar.
• Drizzle over scones.
• Scones are best enjoyed right away, though leftover scones keep well at room temperature or in the refrigerator for about 3 to 5 days.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, beat the mashed bananas, yogurt, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract together. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together. Grate the frozen butter (I use a box grater to grate it; a food processor also works for grating). Toss the grated butter into the flour mixture and combine it with a pastry cutter, two forks, a food processor, or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Set aside.
• Drizzle wet ingredients over flour mixture, add the walnuts, and then toss the mixture together with a rubber spatula until everything appears moistened. Try your best to not overwork the dough at any point. Dough will be sticky and a little wet. Drop scones, 1/4 cup of dough each, at least 3 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Brush scones with milk, then top with a little coarse sugar if desired for extra crunch. Tastes great!

BANANA-NUT SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a cookie sheet.
• Place bananas in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until mashed. Add brown sugar, yogurt, egg, and vanilla, beating until smooth. Add cinnamon, baking powder, and salt, beating to combine. Add flour, 1 cup at a time, beating just until combined after each addition. Do not overmix.
• Grate chilled butter into batter using a cheese grater. Beat to combine. Fold in walnuts using a rubber spatula. Drop batter by generous 1/4 cupfuls onto the prepared cookie sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges and tops of scones are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center of a scone comes out with only crumbs, 17 to 20 minutes.
• When scones have a few minutes left in the oven, combine maple syrup and butter for glaze in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook until butter melts completely; do not boil. Remove from heat. Add just enough confectioners' sugar, whisking in a small amount at a time, to reach desired consistency for glaze.
• Drizzle glaze over scones using a spoon or whisk.
