As seen live on the Today Show, WNBC,
November 15, 2003. Recipe demoed from my
Baking 9-1-1 Cookbook~ ORDER YOUR
COPY NOW! These scones are made flaky
by "cutting in" cold butter into the flour and excluding eggs which would
make them more cake-like. Today's trend is to dress up scones with dried
fruit, citrus zest, chocolate chips, orange or lemon flavoring, ginger,
poppy seeds, herbs, cheese, bacon, or vegetables. Adding fresh berries or
fruit to a scone recipe doesn't work because this dough is kneaded and
kneading squishes the fruit. This means that the dough gets too wet from the
juice. |
