Time 35m

Yield 12 scones

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups pastry flour
2 cups bread flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 ounces cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 cups cold heavy cream, plus more for brushing
1 cup chopped pecans
1 cup chopped dried apricots
1 cup chopped white chocolate
Granulated sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the pastry flour, bread flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Using a pastry cutter or 2 knives, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it is the size of peas. Stir in the cream until just combined. Fold in the pecans, apricots and white chocolate.
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Fold the dough over itself 3 to 4 times to create layers. Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick circle and cut into 12 wedges. Transfer the scones to a baking sheet, brush with cream and sprinkle with sugar.
  • Bake until the scones are golden brown and feel firm to the touch, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer the scones to a wire rack to cool completely.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I omitted the pecans. The scones were still delicious.

I accidentally used salted butter instead of unsalted butter. The scones were still good, but they were a little too salty for my taste.

I'm not a big fan of apricots, so I substituted dried cranberries instead. They turned out great!

These scones are the perfect combination of sweet and tangy. I love the addition of pecans, which add a nice crunch.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my scones didn't turn out as fluffy as I expected. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These scones were a bit dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more butter next time.

These scones turned out amazing! The flavors of apricot, white chocolate, and pecan complement each other perfectly. They're moist, flavorful, and have just the right amount of sweetness.
