Time 45m

Yield 8 scones

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups flour
1/3 cup cornmeal
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup firm butter, cut into 8 pieces
3/4 cup buttermilk (see note below)

Steps:

  • Mix first 5 ingredients in a medium bowl.
  • Cut in the butter using pastry blended till it looks like fine crumbs.
  • Stir in buttermilk so dough leaves sides of bowl and forms a ball.
  • Turn dough onto lightly floured surface and knead lightly about 10 times.
  • Pat or roll into a 7-inch circle on ungreased cookie sheet that has been sprinkled with cornmeal.
  • Score into 8 wedges, cutting down halfway to the bottom.
  • Bake in 400 degree oven for 20-25 minutes or till light brown.
  • Immediately remove from sheet and carefully separate wedges.
  • Serve warm.
  • NOTE: If the dough is too dry, stir in an additional 1-2 tablespoons of buttermilk; sometimes I will add an extra tablespoon while mixing, but you try it for the first time.

These scones are a bit too dense for my taste. I think I'll try using a different recipe next time.

I'm not a big fan of cornbread, but these scones are really good. They're not too sweet and they have a nice crispy crust.

These scones are a bit bland. I think I'll try adding some cheese or bacon next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my scones turned out really dry. I think I might have overmixed the batter.

These scones are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

These scones are a bit denser than I expected, but they're still very good. I think I'll try using a different type of cornmeal next time.

I love the nutty flavor of these scones. They're also really versatile - I've added cheese, bacon, and even blueberries to the batter.

These scones are a great way to use up leftover cornmeal. They're also a great make-ahead breakfast or snack.

These cornmeal scones were a hit at my last brunch party! They're so moist and flavorful, and the perfect balance of sweet and savory.
