    Lemon Pecan Scones


    Source of Recipe


    internet


    List of Ingredients


    • 2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1/4 cup sugar
    • 1 T baking powder
    • 1/2 tsp salt
    • grated zest of 1 lemon
    • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
    • 1 1/4 cups heavy cream
    • 1/2 tsp lemon extract
    • 1 T melted butter
    • 1 T sugar


    Instructions


    1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
    2. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Add the lemon zest and pecans.
    3. In a measuring cup, stir together heavy cream and lemon extract. Stir into dry ingredients until dough holds together in a rough mass. Do not overmix. The dough will be quite sticky. Lightly flour a board and transfer the dough to it. Knead the dough 8 or 9 times. Pat into two circles about 6" round. Brush melted butter over the top and side of the circle of dough and sprinkle the sugar on top. Cut each circle into 6 wedges and place pieces on an ungreased baking sheet, allowing about an inch between pieces.
    4. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
