    Buttery Maple Scones


    Source of Recipe


    Loghouse & Homestead on Spirit Lake

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

    In a bowl of a food processor add:
    3 cups sifted flour
    1-1/2 TBLSP baking powder
    1/3 tsp salt
    1 cup pecans
    Process until pecans are ground

    Add:
    1-1/2 sticks cold butter cut into pieces
    Process until mixture resembles coarse meal--not too fine.

    Mix together:
    2/3 cup PURE maple syrup, 1/3 cup heavy cream and add to processor.

    Pulse only until mixture is incorporated. Dump onto a lightly floured surface and pat/roll to 1" or so thick. Use a 2" or 3" cookie cutter. Place scones on a cookie sheet covered with parchment paper. Brush scones with additional maple syrup and top with a pecan half.

    Bake 13-15 minutes for smaller scones--15-20 for the larger size or until tops are golden. DO NOT overbake as scones will be dry and hard.

    Remove from pan and brush twice more with maple syrup. Scones freeze well. Thaw and warm to serve.
