Breakfast Scones image

My friend Patti makes these all the time and I just kept forgetting to ask for the recipe so onward and upward research! Found a lot of recipes all basically the same so I did the normal and combined a couple and came up with this I hope you enjoy these. My hubby loves them but I doubt they will ever be as good as...

Categories     Breakfast

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 c all purpose flour
1/4 c sugar
1 Tbsp baking powder sifted
1/2 tsp salt
6 Tbsp butter, frozen in little squares
1/3 c cranberries or blueberries (dried)
1 egg, beaten
1/2 c heavy cream, cold
2 Tbsp heavy cream, cold (for the top)
sugar sprinkles for the top

Steps:

  • 1. Add the dry ingredients being sure to sift the baking powder to make sure there will be no brown spots in your scones.
  • 2. Cut in the frozen butter or just dig in and mush it up, but you have to work very quickly. You DO NOT want to melt your butter or make it soft. It is part of what makes them rise. Make sure everything is cold you work with. This is where I made a change. I grated the butter then tossed it in the flour, turned on the beater for about 30 seconds added the wet ingredients and the berries and then once almost all was wet about 45 seconds dumped it onto a cutting sheet. Kneading it about one minute then formed my flat round and cut it. It was faster and easier.
  • 3. Mix the egg with the 1/2 cup of cream and beat together until creamy.
  • 4. Add all the wet ingredients to the dry and throw in the berries at this time. Work quickly then knead a little bit in the bowl just to make a nice ball.
  • 5. Flatten the ball on a clean surface and use VERY little flour into 3/4 inch thick 8 inch circle. Cut into 8 pieces.
  • 6. Move to your baking sheet. Brush with the last two tablespoons of cream then sprinkle on the coarse sugar sprinkles.
  • 7. Bake in a PRE HEATED oven to 425 for 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool! Wrap up and wait for breakfast Yummy! Enjoy

These scones are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

These scones are the perfect way to start my day. They're light, fluffy, and flavorful, and they go perfectly with a cup of coffee or tea.

I'm not a huge fan of scones, but these were pretty darn good. They were light and fluffy, and the orange zest really made them shine. I'll definitely be making these again.

These scones were a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor was still good. I think I'll try using a different recipe next time.

These scones were a disappointment. They were dry and crumbly, and the flavor was bland. I won't be making these again.

I made these scones gluten-free by using almond flour instead of all-purpose flour, and they turned out great! They were just as light and fluffy as the traditional scones, and my gluten-free friends loved them.

These scones were a bit dry for my taste, but the flavor was still good. I think I'll try adding a little more butter next time.

I've made these scones several times now, and they're always a hit. They're so easy to make, and they always turn out perfectly. I love that I can add different mix-ins to change up the flavor, too.

These scones were a delight! They had a perfect balance of sweetness and flakiness, and the orange zest added a lovely citrus flavor. I served them with a dollop of lemon curd and a cup of tea, and they were the perfect start to my day.
