Ingredients
- 2 cups flour
- ⅓ cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ⅓ cup cold butter
- 1 egg
- ½ cup heavy cream
- plus 1 tablespoon more cream and 2 teaspoon sugar for the top
Instructions
- Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a food processor.
- Add in the cold butter cut into small pieces and blend until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs.
- In a small bowl beat the egg and stir in the heavy cream.
- Add the cream and egg mixture to the flour mixture in the food processor and pulse until it's completely combined and comes together to form a dough ball. Be careful not to over mix.
- Dough is ready when it holds together when squeezed in your hand.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and form into a ball.
- Cut the ball in half. Form each half into a flat disk about ¾ inch thick.
- Cut each disk into 6 equal wedges. Brush the top of each scone with more heavy cream and sprinkle with some sugar.
- Bake at 425 F degree oven on a large baking sheet in the middle of the oven for about 8-10 minutes, or until the tips of the wedges start to turn golden brown. Let cool on a wire rack.
