Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg.
-
Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add it to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggnog, vanilla extract, and egg. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
-
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together. Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick circle.
-
Cut the dough into 8 wedges and transfer them to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
-
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown.
-
Remove from the oven and let them cool for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
