Cream Girdle Scones (Stove-Top Scones) image

An authentic Scottish scone recipe that's perfect for hot days when you don't want to turn on the oven.

Provided by adapted from a Lofty Peak recipe

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 oz (1 3/4 to 2 cups) sifted, self-raising flour (or all-purpose flour with 2 tsp baking powder)
1 oz (1/8 cup) sugar
1 oz (1/4 stick) butter
4 oz (1/2 cup) milk (I used buttermilk)
1 egg
pinch of salt
2 oz (1/4 cup) raisins, or currants-optional

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar, then add the egg.
  • Add the milk, then the flour and salt, and mix until it comes together into a dough. (If adding raisins or currants, do so at this time.)
  • Turn out onto floured surface and fold over until smooth and divide in two. Roll out each half and cut into 4 quarters.
  • Place on preheated griddle set at about medium high to test, (if some flour turns light brown in a few seconds, it is ready). Turn the scones when they have risen, and the bottoms are dark colored.
  • Continue to cook until the other side is also well-colored and scone is cooked entirely.
  • Remove from heat and cool in a kitchen towel for a few minutes before serving.
  • Serve while warm with butter, jam and/or cream and some hot tea.

GRIDDLE SCONES



Griddle Scones image

Scones were originally baked on a griddle. Although the dough must be softer and the scones thinner in order to cook through on the griddle, they are served from a basket with butter, jam, or confectioners sugar. They are very similar to pancakes but you may pick them up with your fingers and eat them. Sometimes I have them with soup as a bread.

Yield Makes 16

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled, sliced
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted, plus more for the griddle
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for work surface
1 teaspoon table salt
Butter and jam, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Place potatoes in a small saucepan; cover with cold water, and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook until very tender, about 12 minutes. Drain; transfer to a medium bowl. Using a potato ricer or a food mill, mash potatoes (you should have 5 cups mashed). Add melted butter, flour, and salt. Stir, using a wooden spoon, until dough comes together. Transfer to a clean work surface; knead until smooth, being careful not to overwork the dough.

Lightly butter griddle; cook scones in batches until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a clean kitchen towel, keeping scones covered while cooking remaining scones. Serve warm with butter and jam, if desired.

GRIDDLE SCONES

Categories     Bread     Breakfast     Brunch     Bake     Quick & Easy     Gourmet     Sugar Conscious     Kidney Friendly     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added     Kosher

Yield Makes 8 scones

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups all-purpose flour plus additional for dusting
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
3/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup well-shaken buttermilk
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter, melted
Special equipment: a well-seasoned cast-iron griddle or skillet
Accompaniments: softened butter and jam

Steps:

  • Sift together flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt into a bowl. Stir together buttermilk and butter in a small bowl with a fork, then add to dry ingredients and stir just until a soft dough forms.
  • Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface. Divide dough in half and knead each half 3 or 4 times. Pat each half into a 6-inch round (1/2 inch thick), then cut each round into 4 wedges.
  • Heat griddle over low heat until hot. Working in 2 batches if griddle is small, lightly dust both sides of each scone with flour, shaking off excess, and cook scones over low heat, undisturbed, 3 minutes. Increase heat to moderately low and cook until scones are puffed and undersides are golden brown, about 5 minutes more. Turn scones over and cook until golden brown and cooked through (watch scones closely and adjust heat as needed so they cook through but do not burn), 7 to 8 minutes (cut one scone open to check for doneness).
  • Transfer to a rack and cool to warm, 3 to 4 minutes.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your scones the best flavor and texture. If you can, try to use organic ingredients whenever possible.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make your scones tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help it to rise better and give it a more flaky texture.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When baking the scones, make sure to leave enough space between them so that they can rise properly.
  • 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:

Brown griddle scones are a delicious and versatile breakfast treat. They can be served with butter, jam, or fruit. They can also be used to make sandwiches or croutons. No matter how you choose to serve them, brown griddle scones are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
