Cinnamon Maple Scones Recipes

CINNAMON SCONES RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400. Line a baking sheet with parchment or silicone, then set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Grate the cold butter into the flour mixture and toss to coat.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the half and half, egg, and vanilla. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The dough should be a little rough and shaggy, but should hold together.
• Gently pat the dough out on a floured surface into a rectangle that is approximately 8 inches tall and 10 inches wide.
• In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon. Spread the brown sugar mixture evenly over the dough.
• Gently roll the dough up, starting on the wider side, to form a long tube. Cut the dough into ten even-sized pieces, and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Bake 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon milk. Add additional milk, as needed, to make a smooth and somewhat runny glaze. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled scones and let set.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread walnuts onto a baking sheet.
• Toast walnuts in the preheated oven until nuts turn golden brown and become fragrant, about 5 minutes. Watch carefully; nuts can burn quickly. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
• Increase oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place 3 tablespoons flour, 3 tablespoons brown sugar, and 1/2 cup cooled walnuts in a small bowl. Cut in 2 tablespoons butter using two knives or a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• Whisk together 2 cups flour, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in 1/2 cup butter using two knives or a pastry blender until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Stir in remaining 1/2 cup walnuts.
• Whisk together 1/3 cup maple syrup and egg in a small bowl; stir into flour mixture. Gradually stir in just enough milk for the dough to leave the sides of the bowl and form a ball.
• Place dough on a lightly floured surface. Roll gently in flour to coat; knead lightly about 10 times. Pat into an 8-inch circle on an ungreased baking sheet. Brush with milk; sprinkle evenly with topping. Score dough circle into 8 wedges with a knife, but do not separate wedges.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Remove immediately from the baking sheet, and separate the scones. Serve warm with whipped cream and maple syrup.
