Whole Wheat Pomegranate Scones image

Crunchy tender scones with a sweet/tart flavor. I've have successfully substituted whole wheat pastry flour, soy milk, and vanilla paste. When I use a dark baking sheet or a glass baking dish, I reduce the temperature of the oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C).

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups whole wheat flour
½ cup cornstarch, or more as needed
1 tablespoon baking powder

These scones are a great way to use up leftover pomegranate arils. I always have a few extra arils after I make pomegranate juice. These scones are a great way to use them up and avoid waste.

I love the versatility of these scones. You can add different fruits, nuts, or spices to change up the flavor. I've even made them savory by adding cheese and herbs.

These scones are the perfect make-ahead breakfast. I usually make a batch on the weekend and then freeze them. I can then just pop them in the oven when I'm ready to eat them.

I made these scones gluten-free by using gluten-free flour. They turned out great! The texture was a bit different than the traditional scones, but they were still very delicious.

These scones were a bit dry for my taste. I think I might have overmixed the dough. But the flavor was still good, thanks to the pomegranate arils.
