SIMPLE SCONES

Make a holiday breakfast -- or afternoon tea -- really special with these sweet bakery treats.

Provided by Ben S.

Categories     Bread     Quick Bread Recipes     Scone Recipes

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all-purpose flour
⅓ cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, frozen
½ cup raisins (or dried currants)
½ cup sour cream
1 large egg

Steps:

  • Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • In a medium bowl, mix flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Grate butter into flour mixture on the large holes of a box grater; use your fingers to work in butter (mixture should resemble coarse meal), then stir in raisins.
  • In a small bowl, whisk sour cream and egg until smooth.
  • Using a fork, stir sour cream mixture into flour mixture until large dough clumps form. Use your hands to press the dough against the bowl into a ball. (The dough will be sticky in places, and there may not seem to be enough liquid at first, but as you press, the dough will come together.)
  • Place on a lightly floured surface and pat into a 7- to 8-inch circle about 3/4-inch thick. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tsp. of sugar. Use a sharp knife to cut into 8 triangles; place on a cookie sheet (preferably lined with parchment paper), about 1 inch apart. Bake until golden, about 15 to 17 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes and serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use cold butter: This will help create flaky scones.
  • Work the dough quickly: Overworking the dough will make the scones tough.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the scones hold their shape.
  • Bake the scones in a hot oven: This will help them rise quickly.
  • Don't overbake the scones: Overbaked scones will be dry and crumbly.
  • Serve the scones warm: Scones are best eaten warm, but they can also be served at room temperature.

Conclusion:

Scones are a delicious and versatile breakfast or brunch food. They can be made with a variety of ingredients, so there's sure to be a recipe that everyone will enjoy. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make delicious scones at home.
