Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 c all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
3 Tbsp granulated sugar
1/2 c cold butter, cut in pats
1 large egg
1/2 c cold milk
1/2 tsp maple flavor
2 c diced cooked maple-cured bacon or ham, in 1/4
TOPPING
1 tsp maple syrup
1 Tbsp cream
2 Tbsp granulated sugar
additional maple syrup, to serve

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and granulated sugar. Add the butter, working it in till the mixture is crumbly.
  • 2. Whisk together the egg, milk, and maple flavor. Add this to the dry ingredients, along with the bacon or ham. Mix just till everything is evenly moistened.
  • 3. Transfer the dough to a piece of parchment or a lightly floured work surface. Pat and roll it into a 9" x 9" square, about 5/8" thick.
  • 4. Cut the dough into nine 3" squares. Then cut each square into two triangular wedges, to make a total of 18 scones.
  • 5. Place the scones on a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, and put them in the freezer for 30 minutes. While the scones are chilling, preheat your oven to 425°F.
  • 6. Combine the 1 tsp maple syrup with the cream. Brush the chilled scones with the cream mixture, and sprinkle with additional sugar, if desired. Bake the chilled scones for 18 to 20 minutes, or until they're a medium to deep-golden brown.
  • 7. Remove the scones from the oven, and cool them on a rack briefly. Serve warm with maple syrup.

I've tried a lot of different scone recipes, but this one is my favorite. The scones are always light and fluffy, and the maple glaze is the perfect finishing touch.

These scones were a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding a little bit of extra butter or milk next time.

I love the flavor of these scones, but I wish they were a bit more moist. Maybe I'll add a little bit of extra butter next time.

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

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my scones came out flat and dense. They didn't have much flavor either.
