Time 30m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/3 cup milk
1/3 cup light molasses
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
7 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold, cut into pieces

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Measure milk in a glass cup measure; add molasses to the 2/3 cup mark and stir to blend.
  • Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl.
  • Add butter and cut in with a pastry blender or rub in with your fingers until the mixture looks like fine granules.
  • Stir milk mixture and add; stir with a fork to form a smooth, rather soft dough.
  • Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and give 10-12 kneads.
  • Cut dough in half.
  • Knead each half briefly into a ball; turn smooth side up and place on an ungreased cookie sheet.
  • Pat each piece of dough into a 5-inch circle; cut into 6-8 wedges; leave sides touching.
  • Bake about 10 minutes or until medium brown.
  • Do not overbake.
  • Cool loosely wrapped in a cloth on a wire rack.
  • Makes 12 to 16 scones.

These scones were a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference.

These scones were a little dry for my liking. I think I should have added a bit more milk to the batter.

I used a different type of molasses than the recipe called for and the scones turned out a bit darker than I expected. But they still tasted great!

These scones were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. Otherwise, they were delicious.

I added some dried cranberries to the batter and they turned out so good. The tartness of the cranberries really complemented the sweetness of the scones.

These scones were an absolute delight! The perfect balance of spices and sweetness, with a texture that was both crumbly and moist. I'll definitely be making these again soon.
