Perfect Cream Scones

Ingredients:

3 cups flour **(I use naturally white whole wheat)
1/2 cup sugar
2 Tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2 cups heavy whipping cream
pinch of cinnamon

Directions:

  • Sift flour, sugar, baking powder & salt together in a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the center of the flour and slowly add the cream stirring by hand just until the batter is evenly moistened.
  • Place dough on a cookie sheet and pat out into a circle. Cut into 6-8 triangular pieces.
Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

Variation: Add Dried Cherries or Cranberries

  1. We have a tea house that I go to and they serve scones. I love them - now I can make them at home - hope it works - my baking has a little bit to be desired.
