| Scones | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2 cups | all-purpose flour | 500 ml |
| 1/4 cup | brown sugar | 50 ml |
| 1 tbsp | baking powder | 15 ml |
| 1 | pinch of sea salt | 1 |
| 4 tbsp | unsalted butter, cold, cut into pieces | 4 tbsp |
| 2 cups | Ontario peaches | 500 ml |
| 1/2 cup | Skor bits | 125 ml |
| 2 | large eggs | 2 |
| 1/2 cup | cream (35% is best, 10% will work) | 125 ml |
Directions
Preheat oven to 450˚F (230˚C).
In large bowl, mix flour, brown sugar, baking powder and salt. Add butter to mixture and using your fingertips work butter into mixture until it looks like a coarse meal. Add diced peaches and Skor bits and mix lightly. In large bowl, whisk eggs and cream together; add dry peach mixture, stirring to combine.
Scrape dough onto a floured board and lightly knead to bring dough together, don't over knead. Roll into a 1-inch (2.5 cm) thick slab and cut dough with a round 3-inch (7.5 cm) cookie cutter. Place on a parchment-covered or non-stick baking sheet and bake for 10 to 15 minutes until golden brown and firm to touch. Serve warm with butter or your favourite jam.
