Directions
Apple Scone Cake,A friend knew I liked Scones and found this recipe for me. It is amazing.,I loved the taste of this, as did everyone at work. My only real issue is that the dough was not able to be rolled out. I patted it in the bottom, then scooped and spread the rest on top. Then, although I had used a nonstick pan that I liberally greased, it just would not come out. So it looks ugly on the plate. I quartered and sliced the apples about 1/2 inch thick, which permitted them to cook to perfection. Because used Gala and Honeycrisp instead of Granny Smiths, I cut the sugar in the topping to 2 tbl and that was quite enough. I will try weighing the flour next time to see if that helps.,Wow! This was amazing! I made it for breakfast and it was gone before I got I home from work. It was super easy and, with the egg washed top, it looked like something out of a magazine. Will definitely be keeping this recipe! Thanks for posting!
