LEMONY CRANBERRY HAZELNUT SCONES WITH LEMON GLAZE



Lemony Cranberry Hazelnut Scones with Lemon Glaze image

I make these for teachers for Valentine's Day, but they are wonderful any day of the week. They are tender and flaky and lemony. You can use dried cranberries (which I do) and leave out the nuts if you'd like. The glaze is wonderful, and I haven't found a person who doesn't just love these scones.

¾ cup cold butter, cut into pieces
9 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons lemon juice
2 ½ teaspoons lemon zest
1 ½ teaspoons vinegar
2 cups confectioners' sugar
⅓ cup butter, melted

Steps:

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Make sure the butter is cold before using it. This will help to create flaky layers in the scones.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the scones tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help to prevent the scones from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the scones until they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the scones cool slightly before glazing them. This will help to prevent the glaze from running off.

Conclusion:

These lemon cranberry hazelnut scones are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. The scones are light and fluffy, with a slightly sweet and tangy flavor. The lemon glaze adds a finishing touch of sweetness and shine.
