Lavender
Scones
from Tea and Tomes in Newport, Oregon
2
cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
4 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons fresh lavender florets
<or>
1 teaspoon dried culinary lavender, roughly chopped
2/3 cup milk, plus extra for glazing
|
|
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Grease and
flour a large baking sheet.
Sift
the baking powder and the flour together in a large mixing bowl.
Rub in the butter until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
Stir in the sugar and lavender, reserving a pinch to sprinkle over
top of the scones before baking.
Add
enough milk to make a soft, sticky dough, knead briefly on a well
floured surface. Shape the dough into a round about 1" thick.
Using a pastry cutter stamp out 12 scones. (I cut mine with a knife
into wedges).
Place
scones on prepared baking sheet, brush tops with a little milk and
sprinkle on the reserved chopped lavender.
Bake
10 to 12 minutes until golden. Serve warm with cream (clotted, if
you can come by it) and jam.
