Brown Sugar Scones image

A recipe I found in my catalogue from King Arthur Flour. The recipes states "This traditional British scone is an ideal tea-time treat when served with clotted cream or butter and jam. It states to use their White Whole Wheat Flour, but I just use All purpose flour. I made the walnuts and raisins optional, depending on your families tastes.

Time 30m

Yield 15-18 scones (2 inch), 15-18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup cake flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2 " cubes
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
3/4 cup golden raisin (optional)
3/4 cup cold buttermilk
half-and-half or heavy cream, for brushing
sparkling white sugar (for sprinkling on top)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400. Combine the flours, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, and cinnamon. Work in butter until small clumps form.
  • Add walnuts, and raisins and toss to incorporate.
  • Pour the buttermilk into the center of the mixture and stir until dough is just cohesive.
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and bring together into a ball. Roll or pat the dough to a 1" thickness. Cut rounds using a 2" round biscuit cutter and transfer to parchment lined baking sheet.
  • Or, pat into a square and cut square scones.
  • Freeze for 15 minutes.
  • Brush scones with cream, and sprinkle with sugar.
  • Bake until they begin to brown, 20 to 22 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on a rack.

I love the flavor of these scones! The brown sugar gives them a really nice caramelized flavor.

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

These scones were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I might have undermixed the dough.

These scones were a hit! I made them for a brunch party and they were gone in minutes. Everyone loved the sweet and buttery flavor, and the texture was perfect - light and fluffy on the inside, with a slightly crispy exterior.
