Directions
Eggless Tender Flaky Scones, This lovely textured scone is from a chef at Hastings House, Canada The key to its tenderness is not overhandling the dough Best served with clotted cream, whipped cream with a touch of powdered sugar or marmalade It’s the easiest, best tasting scones I’ve ever come across , This is my favorite scone recipe I usually make half a recipe (as I do with most recipes since I normally cook for one, myself) I process the dry ingredients and butter in the food processor and sometimes add the whipping cream to the food processor and pulse until combined I hand shape the dough on a parchment paper covered stone and bake Dried cranberries are what I usually add, and sometimes just a hint of cinnamon for a change I am a bread lover and these are so good to me , The scone is very buttery and flakey, it almost taste like a biscuit It can use a little more sugar My son who is allergic to egg loves it I also sprinkle a little sugar on top before putting it into the oven and it creates a golden brown and a little crunchy top
