Yield Makes 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups all purpose flour
1/4 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup dried currants
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons dark molasses (do not use blackstrap)
3/4 cup buttermilk
Melted butter
Sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Sift flour, dark brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg and salt into large bowl. Add dried currants. Melt 1/4 cup unsalted butter with dark molasses in heavy small saucepan over low heat. Combine molasses mixture with buttermilk and pour into dry ingredients. Mix dough until just blended.
  • Gently knead dough on generously floured surface until smooth, about 20 turns. Divide dough in half. Pat out each dough piece into 5-inch-diameter round. Cut each dough round into 4 wedges. Transfer dough wedges to ungreased cookie sheet, spacing 2 inches apart. Brush with melted butter. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake until scones are just firm to touch, about 20 minutes. Serve scones hot.

I'm not a big fan of treacle, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I'm glad I did because these scones were amazing! The treacle flavor was subtle and not overpowering. I will definitely be making these again.

These scones were a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding a bit more butter next time.

These scones were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still enjoyable. I think I would reduce the amount of treacle next time.

I was pleasantly surprised by how well these scones turned out. They were so light and fluffy, and the treacle gave them a lovely golden brown color. I served them with clotted cream and jam, and they were absolutely perfect.

These scones were a delightful treat! The treacle added a unique and flavorful sweetness that set them apart from traditional scones. They were also incredibly moist and fluffy, with a perfect crumbly texture.
