Directions
Lemon Cornmeal Scones With Dried Cherries,This is a delicious, not-too-sweet treat. The cornmeal gives it a pleasant, crunchy bite. The original recipe is from Nick Malgieri’s book “How to Bake.” I modified it a little bit by replacing some flour with oat bran, increasing the amount of lemon zest, and adding nuts.,used 2Bleu’s suggestion of substituting processed oats for the oat bran and made these with dried cherries but omitted the nuts. Since there’s some evidence that cherries may guard against gout attacks, I’ve been on the lookout for new ways to incorporate them into my diet, and this is an excellent one. Like mary w., I found they didn’t rise that much but I gave them 5 stars anyway because I love the flavor and like that they’re not overly sweet.,used 2Bleu’s suggestion of substituting processed oats for the oat bran and made these with dried cherries but omitted the nuts.
