APPLE CINNAMON SCONES



Apple Cinnamon Scones image

I landed my first job in a bakery when I was sixteen. I would come in after school and make huge batches of scone mix to help the morning baker. After I graduated from high school, I became the principal baker --and spent the summer waking up at 2 a.m. Even though I had to go to bed at 7 p.m., I felt like the coolest kid in town. The bakery offered a bunch of different flavors of scones, and I could never decide on a favorite.

Time 45m

Yield About 18 scones

Number Of Ingredients 10

361 grams (3 cups) all-purpose flour
132 grams (2/3 cup) granulated sugar
12 grams (1 tablespoon) baking powder
2 grams (1 teaspoon) ground cinnamon
1 gram (1/4 teaspoon) fine sea salt
142 grams (5 ounces) (10 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
340 to 425 grams (2 to 2 1/2 cups) chopped apples, peeled if desired
242 grams (1 cup) heavy cream
Egg wash: 57 grams (1 large) egg, beaten with 15 grams (1 tablespoon) water and a small pinch of fine sea salt
Turbinado or coarse sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C), with racks in the upper and lower thirds. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Add the butter and toss to coat the cubes with flour. Cut the butter into the flour by rubbing it between your forefingers and thumbs until the butter pieces are between the size of peas and walnut halves. Add the chopped apples and toss gently to combine.
  • Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the cream. Toss the mixture with your fingers to combine, then knead gently to ensure everything is evenly moistened.
  • Scoop 1/4-cup mounds of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets (I do this by hand because I like them to look craggy, but you can use a No. 16 (1/4-cup scoop)), leaving at least 1 1/2 inches between them. Brush the tops of the scones with the egg wash and sprinkle generously with turbinado sugar.
  • Bake the scones, switching the sheets from front to back and top to bottom at the halfway mark, for 20 to 22 minutes, until the tops and edges are golden brown. The scones can be served warm or at room temperature.

EASY APPLE CINNAMON WALNUT SCONES



Easy Apple Cinnamon Walnut Scones image

I made these up this morning when we were looking for a different flavour of scone for breakfast. I forgot to put sugar in the scones, so I sprinkled the top with Demmara Sugar - and I like them better that way! It adds a nice crunch on top. These are not your typical buttery scone - these are more of a hearty, healthy, and hold you till lunch kind of scone! If you don't have cinnamon chips, add a tbsp or two of brown sugar and increase the cinnamon to 1 tsp to compensate.

APPLE CINNAMON SCONES

***Updated 4/8/08 - This recipe has been adjusted regarding bake times and temperature. That seemed to correct the problems stated by the reviewer (based on her baking these again.) The reviewer did suggest to just use a powdered sugar/milk glaze over the scones also. Thank you to "Chef #532663" for all her help in figuring out what when wrong the first time.**** From Pillsbury recipe clip-out. I made these years ago and unfortunately cannot remember the results...one of the few recipes I did not write down a comment outside of the date I made them.

Time 40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups all-purpose flour
⅓ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons shortening, chilled
2 apple - peeled, cored, and chopped
1 egg, lightly beaten
½ cup plain yogurt
1 tablespoon milk
1 ½ teaspoons almond extract
1 tablespoon milk
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons cinnamon sugar
¼ cup sliced almonds

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Stir the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a mixing bowl. Use two forks or a pastry blender to cut in the shortening with the flour mixture until the mixture resembles coarse corn meal. Stir in the chopped apples.
  • Whisk 1 egg, yogurt, milk, and almond extract together in a small bowl until smooth. Stir the egg mixture into the flour mixture just until blended. Gather the dough, and place the dough on a lightly floured surface; knead 4 to 5 times. Pat dough into a 7 inch diameter circle about 1 1/2 inch thick. Cut dough into 8 wedges, and place on prepared baking sheet.
  • To make the scone topping, whisk the milk and 1 egg together in a small bowl. Brush tops of scones with the egg mixture. Sprinkle each scone with cinnamon sugar and almonds.
  • Bake in preheated oven until tops are golden brown, and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use a food processor to quickly and easily combine the dry ingredients.
  • If you don't have a food processor, be sure to whisk the dry ingredients together until they are well combined.
  • Use cold butter for the scones. This will help to keep them flaky and light.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • Be sure to chill the scones for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help to prevent them from spreading too much.
  • If you want to make the scones ahead of time, you can freeze them for up to 2 months. Just be sure to wrap them tightly in plastic wrap before freezing.

Conclusion:

Apple cinnamon walnut scones are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. They are also a great way to use up leftover apples. With their flaky crust, tender crumb, and sweet and cinnamony flavor, these scones are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
