Maple Nut Scones with Cappuccino Glaze
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
-
Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, vanilla extract, and milk. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
-
Fold in the chopped nuts.
-
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 circle about 1 inch (5 cm) thick.
-
Cut the dough into 8 wedges and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.
-
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown.
-
While the scones are baking, prepare the cappuccino glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, instant coffee granules, and hot water until smooth.
-
Once the scones have cooled slightly, drizzle the cappuccino glaze over the top.
-
Serve warm and enjoy!
