Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 6

675gself-raising flour
175gbutter or margarine
100ghoney
125gapple, grated
1egg
150mlmilk

Steps:

  • Pre heat your oven to 180°C/160°C fan/gas mark 4.
  • Place the flour and butter or margarine into a large bowl and rub together with your fingertips until the mix resembles fine breadcrumbs. Alternatively, place these ingredients in the bowl of your food mixer, attach a beater and mix on low until you have achieved the same result.
  • Make a well in the centre of this mixture and add 75g of the honey and all the grated apple.
  • Add the egg and two thirds of the milk. Using your fingers bring the ingredients together until you have a soft, pliable dough. Add additional milk if the dough feels too dry. Alternatively, mix with the beater in your food mixer until you achieve the same results.
  • Liberally sprinkle flour over your worktop and place the dough on top. Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough to around 3cm (1¼") thick. Use a 7cm (2½") cutter to cut out your scones. Gather up the trimmings and repeat until you have 12 scones.
  • Place the scones on a lined tray and brush the tops with the remaining milk. Place into your oven for 10-15 minutes or until risen and golden.
  • Remove from the oven and while the scones are still hot brush with the remaining 25g of honey. Leave to cool.

APPLE AND HONEY SCONES



Apple and Honey Scones image

I found this on the 'net in a hungry search for ever more scone recipes. This was listed as being a prize winner in a recipe contest for wheat germ. They don't contain egg so a true scone aficionado would probably say these are a biscuit not a scone.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you begin baking, measure and prepare all of your ingredients. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Use cold butter: Cold butter will create flaky layers in your scones. If you use melted butter, your scones will be dense and heavy.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will develop the gluten and make your scones tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the scones hold their shape and rise evenly.
  • Bake the scones until they are golden brown: The scones are done baking when they are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Conclusion:

Apple and honey scones are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create these flavorful scones that are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
