This is my own recipe. How I fill them is a secret, but I'm sure you can use your imagination to figure out your own way! Because I sell these I'm not giving the secret out. I'm posting this here for the nutritional info. Ingredients:
3 cups unbleached flour |
1/3 cup sugar |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste |
1 egg |
1/2 cup butter, chilled and cubed |
3/4 cup half-and-half |
300 g frozen strawberries |
1/2 cup sugar |
1 tablespoon cornstarch |
2 tablespoons cold water |
Directions:
1. Filling:. 2. Simmer fruit and sugar in a saucepan on the stove until tender. Dissolve cornstarch in water and add to fruit. Simmer just until thickened. Cover and chill. 3. Scone:. 4. Preheat oven to 375. 5. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. 6. Cut in cold butter using a pastry knife, or a food processor with the blade attachment. 7. In a different bowl beat the egg, add cream and vanilla paste/pulp. 8. Pour liquids into dry ingredients and stir just to combine (don't over work or the scones will be tough and not flaky). 9. Measure out 1/4 cups of batter on a cookie sheet and fill however you like. 10. Dust tops with sugar. 11. Bake for 16 minutes or until lightly golden brown. |
