LEMON SOUR CREAM SCONES
Yield 8 1 scone
Number Of Ingredients 8
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 4000 F. Finely grate or zest lemon leaving as much white pith on the orange peel as possible (should measure about 1 tablespoon zest). Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and lemon zest. Add 6 tablespoons butter and coarsely cut* into flour until lumps are the size of small peas. Add sour cream and stir just until mixed (do not over mix). Flour hands, place dough on lightly floured surface and knead 4-5 times. Gently pat dough into a circle 1/2-inch thick. Cut into 8 wedges and place on baking sheet lined with parchment paper (may place on un-greased baking sheet, but bottom of scones will bake dark). Brush tops with optional beaten egg white to improve browning of tops. Bake 15-20 minutes or until light, airy and lightly browned. Serve warm with optional Lemon Honey Butter (see below). Notes: * Quick and easy tip - grate butter into flour mixture using the large holes of a grater.
