Maple Pecan Scones
Maple Pecan is officially my new favorite coffee creamer, coffee flavor, and scone flavor. I thought Blackberry Scones were my favorite--then, Peach Scones! But then I made these and--well, they're all amazing. Try these today, and watch your family SWOON.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter cold
- 2/3 cup chopped pecans toasted
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup real maple syrup
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt for glaze
Instructions
- Get ready. Preheat your oven to 375° F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix dry ingredients. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Incorporate butter. Grate the cold butter using a cheese grater and mix it into the dry ingredients with your hands. Then, gently mix in the toasted pecans.
- Combine wet ingredients. In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, egg, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
- Form the dough. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir until just combined. Turn the dough onto a floured surface, shape into a ball, and flatten into an 8-9 inch disc. Cut into 6-8 wedges.
- Bake. Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 25-28 minutes until golden brown. Let them cool for 5-10 minutes.
- Make the glaze. Whisk together powdered sugar, maple syrup, and salt to create the glaze. Adjust the consistency with additional powdered sugar or maple syrup if needed.
