WHOLE-WHEAT BUTTERMILK SCONES WITH RAISINS AND OATMEAL



Whole-Wheat Buttermilk Scones With Raisins and Oatmeal image

You may be accustomed to the gigantic, sweet scones in coffee shops in this country. They are nothing like the diminutive, light scones that originated in Britain and Ireland. This is a whole-wheat version, only moderately sweet -- the way I think scones should be. You can always top them with jam or honey if you want more sugar. The whole-wheat flour brings a rich, nutty flavor to the scones.

Yield Makes 12 scones

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 cups whole-wheat flour, plus more if needed
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 cup raisins
1 1/2 cups buttermilk, plus more if needed
Jam (optional), for serving
Hot tea (optional), for serving

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Add the butter and use your fingers to pinch the butter and the flour mixture together; when it's all combined, it will resemble large bread crumbs.
  • 2. Use a wooden spoon to mix in the brown sugar and raisins, and then add the buttermilk. If the dough is quite sticky, add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough has the texture of modeling clay. If it's too dry, add more buttermilk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it's wet enough.
  • 3. Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface and roll it out into a rectangle 1/4 inch thick. Cut the dough into 12 (3-inch) squares. Leftover scraps can be rerolled to make more scones.
  • 4. Oil a baking sheet. Fold each square of dough in half diagonally to form a triangle, and lay it on the sheet. Bake the scones until the tops are golden brown, about 30 minutes. Serve warm, with jam and a pot of hot tea if you like.

PERFECT SCONES



Perfect Scones image

Flaky, delicious scones make for a tasty tea time treat. This recipe is from Martha Stewart's Hors D'Oeuvres.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes     Bread Recipes

Yield Makes about forty 1-inch scones

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 1/2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons sugar
Pinch of salt
1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces, plus more for pan
1 to 1 1/4 cups heavy cream
1 egg
1/4 cup light cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt into a large bowl. Cut in butter using a pastry blender or two knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Mixing lightly with your fingers, add heavy cream just until dough holds together. Wrap in plastic and chill about 1/2 hour before rolling out.
  • Butter a large baking sheet; set aside. Roll dough into a circle, 1/2 inch thick for small scones and 3/4 inch thick for larger ones. Using a biscuit or cookie cutter, cut dough into various shapes. Transfer scones to prepared baking sheet.
  • Combine egg and light cream in a small bowl; brush tops of scones with mixture. Bake until golden brown and puffed, 13 to 15 minutes. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • Rosemary and thyme are the perfect herbs to use in these scones. They add a savory flavor that is both aromatic and delicious.
  • Make sure to use cold butter. This will help to create a flaky scone.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will result in tough scones.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help to develop the flavor and make the scones easier to handle.
  • Bake the scones until they are golden brown. Overbaking will dry out the scones.

Conclusion:

These savory whole wheat buttermilk scones with rosemary and thyme are the perfect addition to any brunch or breakfast table. They are flaky, flavorful, and easy to make. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and satisfying snack or meal. Whether you are a seasoned baker or a beginner, these scones are sure to impress. So next time you are looking for a savory scone recipe, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
