Time 25m

Yield Makes 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon cold heavy cream
1 large egg
2 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled), plus more for work surface
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
2/3 cup dried currants
Sanding sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Whisk together 3/4 cup cream and egg. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • With a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut butter into flour mixture until it resembles coarse meal, with a few pea-size pieces of butter remaining. Stir in currants. With a fork, stir in cream mixture until just combined. (The dough should be crumbly; do not overwork.)
  • Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface and pat into a 6-inch circle. Cut into 6 wedges and transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush tops with 1 tablespoon cream and sprinkle with sanding sugar, if desired. Bake until golden, 16 to 18 minutes, rotating sheet halfway through.

WORLD'S BEST SCONES! FROM SCOTLAND TO THE SAVOY TO THE U.S.



World's Best Scones! From Scotland to the Savoy to the U.S. image

My grandmother is Scottish and her family made GREAT scones.... In search of the best scone recipe in the world I have adapted their recipe with my own touches and with the famous scone recipe from the world renowned Savoy hotel in London. I now believe I have adapted the BEST SCONE RECIPE IN THE WORLD!

Categories     Bread     Quick Bread Recipes     Scone Recipes

Time 35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
¼ cup white sugar
⅛ teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup dried currants or raisins
½ cup milk
¼ cup sour cream
1 egg
1 tablespoon milk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Sift the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt into a large bowl. Cut in butter using a pastry blender or rubbing between your fingers until it is in pea sized lumps. Stir in the currants. Mix together 1/2 cup milk and sour cream in a measuring cup. Pour all at once into the dry ingredients, and stir gently until well blended. Overworking the dough results in terrible scones!
  • With floured hands, pat scone dough into balls 2 to 3 inches across, depending on what size you want. Place onto a greased baking sheet, and flatten lightly. Let the scones barely touch each other. Whisk together the egg and 1 tablespoon of milk. Brush the tops of the scones with the egg wash. Let them rest for about 10 minutes.
  • Bake for 10 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until the tops are golden brown, not deep brown. Break each scone apart, or slice in half. Serve with butter or clotted cream and a selection of jams - or even plain.

Provided by jennifermo

Categories     Bread     Quick Bread Recipes     Scone Recipes

Time 40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

¾ cup dried currants
4 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
¾ teaspoon baking soda
½ cup white sugar
1 ¼ teaspoons salt
1 cup chilled unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 tablespoon chilled unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 ½ cups buttermilk
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 tablespoons melted butter
¼ cup coarse sugar crystals

  • Sift flour, baking powder, and baking soda in the bowl of a stand mixer. Using the paddle attachment at low speed, mix white sugar and salt into the flour mixture.
