APPLE PEAR SCONES

I love scones, but haven't tried this recipe. My mom clipped it out from a magazine awhile ago. Courtesy Rao's Coffee Roasting Company in Amherst, Massachusetts. Note: I just noticed the 22-28 minute baking time. In my experience with scones, that seems lengthy. I would watch the baking time.

Tips:

  • Use ripe, flavorful fruit. This will ensure that your scones have the best possible flavor.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the scones tough.
  • Work the dough quickly. The longer you work the dough, the more the butter will melt, which will make the scones less flaky.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the scones rise evenly.
  • Bake the scones until they are golden brown. A toothpick inserted into the center of a scone should come out clean.

Conclusion:

Apple pear scones are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of scones that are sure to please everyone.
