Ingredients

2c. flour

1/4 c. sugar

2 1/2 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp cinnamon*

1/2 c. toasted hazelnuts**

5 tsp. butter, cold

1/2 c. milk

2 eggs

1/2 tsp salt

Directions

Preheat oven to 425 F, Combine Dry ingredients and mix until blended.

Cut in butter until it looks like little peas, Stir in hazelnuts.

Beat eggs in a small cup, add milk and beat again till well blended.

Stir in until doughy and turn out onto floured surface when it appears able to be handled well.

Knead just until the dough becomes soft, do not over knead or scones will be kind of tough.

Roll dough into a ball, and flatten out till its about an inch thick, Place either into a cake pan, or onto a cookie sheet, cutting the rounded dough into 8 wedges, and bake for 10-12 minutes.*** or until a butter knife or toothpick comes out clean.

NOTE: Scones should have a biscuit type of texture, kind of dry.

This recipe should come out slightly sweet, but not TOO sweet. *I never follow the 1/4 tsp. rule with cinnamon, I'm a cinnamon freak, and just sift until it looks like there is enough :)

** Other nuts may be used, I cant recommend using peanuts though, and walnuts might work, but don't usually hold up for texture.

***Cooking times may vary due to oven/altitude yadda yadda yadda....

I love hazelnuts and this is how I remember my mum making scones...not dropped balls. They were always wedges. Funny how any other scone shape is not a proper scone to me.

:) -nod- I don't like them dropped by the spoonful at all. I do my soda breads like this too.

Ooo ... I want these for breakfast with my tea. I almost planted two hazelnut trees in my backyard last spring. These sound incredible.

Take a peek at the Seeded Savoury Mini-scones recipe I found and tucked into the group ... spinach, cheddar, poppy and sesame seeds ... yum. I'm a total scone whore.

Hehe I tend to think of them as the anytime food. But I think most baked goods are.. which my hips will attest to!
