Buttermilk almond scones details

- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup sugar

Method: Set oven at 425 degrees. Beat together egg, buttermilk, and extract. Combine flour, baking powder, soda, salt, and sugar. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add almonds. Add liquid ingredients to dry ingredients. Mix lightly with fork until mixture clings together and forms a soft dough.
Turn dough onto lightly floured surface and knead gently 5 to 6 turns. Divide dough into quarters and pat into 1/2 inch thick circles. Cut into 6 wedges. Bake on greased cookie sheets. Brush scones with cream and sprinkle with a little sugar and a few slices of almonds. Bake 12 to 15 minutes.

Comment: These scones freeze well, but nothing tastes like hot from the oven with lots of butter. I found raspberry curd at Trader Joe’s and it’s a great innovation on these.

Hey there! Just whipped up a batch of the buttermilk almond scones recipe and they were absolutely delish! The scones turned out so light and flaky, with a subtle hint of almond flavor that was oh-so-yummy. The buttermilk added a nice tanginess that balanced out the sweetness perfectly. Plus, they were super easy to make, which was a big bonus for me! Definitely adding this recipe to my go-to list for brunches and afternoon tea.
