Time 40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
¼ cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup cold butter, cut into pieces
1 cup mashed ripe bananas
¾ cup buttermilk
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicon mat (such as Silpat®).
  • Combine 2 3/4 cups flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a medium bowl; stir to blend. Toss in cold butter and cut it into the dry mixture with a pastry cutter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Blend mashed bananas, buttermilk, and vanilla together in a small bowl. Pour into the dry ingredients and stir gently until the mixture comes together. If it's a little too wet, add just a little bit more flour. Handle as lightly as possible and form into a disc on the prepared baking sheet. Gently cut into 12 wedges or just score the disc.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and baked all the way through, 22 to 28 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before moving to a rack to complete cooling.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my scones turned out really dense. They were still tasty, but not as light and fluffy as I was hoping for.

These scones were a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add more buttermilk next time.

I've made these scones several times now, and they always turn out perfectly. They're so easy to make, and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I love the buttermilk and banana combination - it gives the scones a really unique flavor.

These scones were a hit with my family! They were light and fluffy, with a perfect balance of sweetness and tang. I used frozen bananas, and they worked great. I also added a handful of chopped walnuts for extra crunch. Definitely a keeper recipe!
