LEMON PECAN SCONES

I LOVE LEMON AND PECANS AND THIS IS A GREAT SCONE. I SOMETIMES MAKE A GLAZE TO SPREAD ON TOP TO GIVE IT THAT EXTRA SPECIAL TASTE. THIS RECIPE COMES FROM THE GALENA STREET MOUNTAIN INN IN COLORADO.





List of Ingredients



• 2 CUPS UNBLEACHED WHITE FLOUR
  
• 1/4 CUP SUGAR
  
• 1 TABLESPOON BAKING POWDER
  
• 1/2 TEASPOON SALT
  
• GRATED ZEST OF ONE LEMON
  
• 1/2 CUP CHOPPED PECANS
  
• 1 1/4 CUPS HEVY CREAM
  
• 1/2 TEASPOON LEMON EXTRACT
  
• 1 TABLESPOOON MELTED BUTTER
  
• 1 TABLESPOON SUGAR
  






Instructions



1. PREHEAT OVEN TO 375°.
   
2. IN A BOWL, COMBINE THE FLOUR, SUGAR, BAKING POWDER AND SALT. 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.
   
4. LIGHTLY FLOUR A BOARD AND TRANSFER THE DOUGH TO IT. KNEAD THE DOUGH 8 TO 9 TIMES. PAT INTO TWO CIRCLES ABOUT 6 " ROUND.
   
5. 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.
   
6. BAKE FOR 15 TO 20 MINUTES OR UNTIL GOLDEN BROWN.
