2 cups flour, or a gluten-free flour mix ½ cup sugar ½ tsp salt 2 ½ tsp baking powder ½ cup butter, frozen ¼ cup sour cream ¼ cup milk 1 egg 1 tsp vanilla extract 2/3 cup rolled oats 1/3 cup sliced almonds extra milk

Whisk flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder together in a large bowl. Grate the frozen butter and cut it into the flour mix until there is no dry powder.

Whisk milk, sour cream, egg, and vanilla extract together in a small bowl. Pour over the flour mixture, add the oats and almonds, then stir to combine.

Line a baking sheet with baking parchment. Dump the dough onto the sheet and press it together into a ball, then press it into a thick, flat disk. Use a dough cutter to cut it into 8 wedges. Pull them apart from each other. Brush the tops with the extra milk. Put the pan into the fridge or freezer while the oven is heating.

Preheat oven to 400° F. Bake for 18-25 minutes.

2 ½ cups flour 2 Tbsp sugar 1 Tbsp baking powder 1 tsp salt ½ cup butter 3 eggs 2/3 cup buttermilk 2/3 cup grated sharp cheddar ¼ cup chopped chives ¼ cup grated sharp cheddar (to top scones)

Preheat oven to 375° F.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut the butter into the flour with a pastry cutter. Stir in the cheddar and chives.

Whisk 2 eggs and combine with the buttermilk. Add to the flour mixture and stir until just moist.

Turn the dough out onto a well floured surface and knead lightly. Cut dough in half. Roll each half into a circle about ¾” thick. Cut each circle into 4 wedges. Whisk remaining egg in a small dish and brush on top of the scones.

Let the scones rest for about 10 minutes before baking. Sprinkle each scone with about a Tbsp of grated cheddar.

Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown on the edges.

1 ½ cups flour ¼ cup sugar ¼ cup rolled oats ¼ cup butter 1/3 cup milk 1 egg Sliced almonds

Preheat oven to 400° F.

In a medium bowl, combine flour, sugar, and oats. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

In a small bowl, beat together milk and egg yolk, then stir into flour mixture.

On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to ½” thick. Cut out biscuits with a 1 ½” round cutter. Reroll the dough and cut more biscuits. At this size, the recipe should make about 18 biscuits.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place biscuits on it.

In a small bowl, beat the egg white. Brush the tops of the biscuits with egg white, and top with sliced almonds.

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.

2 cups flour ½ tsp salt 1/3 cup sugar ½ tsp ground nutmeg 1 Tbsp baking powder 6 Tbsp cold butter, cut into pieces 2 eggs 1/3 cup plain yogurt or sour cream 1 tsp vanilla extract 1 cup peaches, diced small (fresh, canned, or frozen)

Preheat oven to 375° F and line a baking sheet with parchment.

If the peaches are frozen, they need to be thawed and not too cold.

In a large bowl, stir together the flour, salt, sugar, nutmeg, and baking powder. Cut in the butter until there are no large chunks.

In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, yogurt/sour cream, and vanilla extract.

Stir the wet ingredients and peach pieces into the dry ingredients, until a loose, wet dough is formed.

Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the baking sheet; lightly press down the top of each one. Sprinkle the tops with sugar, if desired.

Bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown. Let rest on the baking sheet for a few minutes before moving them to a cooling rack.

2 cups flour 2 cups rolled barley 3 tsp baking powder ¼ tsp salt ½ cup butter ¼ cup honey ½ cup milk or nut milk

Preheat oven to 425° F. Line baking sheet with parchment.

Sift flour, barley, baking powder, and salt into a bowl. Cut in butter until there is no dry powder. Stir in honey and add enough milk to make a soft dough. Dust the countertop and the top of the dough with flour, and roll out the dough to about ¾” thickness. Cut out scones with a circle cutter, or another desired shape. Place on baking sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes, until the tops have golden-brown edges.

Makes 10-12 large scones.

3 cups almond meal 1 tsp baking powder ½ tsp salt ¼ cup butter 1 Tbsp honey or maple syrup 2 eggs

Preheat oven to 300° F.

Stir together the almond meal, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the butter as small as it will go, then stir in the honey/maple syrup and eggs, forming a soft, sticky dough.

Line a baking sheet with parchment. Form small balls with the dough, then press them into disks on the baking sheet.

Bake for 20-25 minutes until lightly golden brown.

1 ½ cup flour ½ cup almond meal 1 tsp baking powder ½ tsp salt ¼ cup butter 1 egg ½ cup gooseberry jam ½ cup buttermilk Spiced sugar

Preheat oven to 375° F.

Stir together the flour, almond meal, salt, and baking powder.

Cut in the butter until it is thoroughly mixed, no chunks of butter.

Stir in the buttermilk, egg, and jam. It will be a very soft and wet dough. Turn it out onto a floured counter and knead it, very gently, adding in enough flour to make the dough cohesive. Roll it out to about ½”-¾” thick and cut out rounds.

Sprinkle spiced sugar on the top of each round, place them on a baking sheet lined with baking parchment, and bake for 15-20 minutes until they are golden brown.

Variations:

Obviously, use whatever jam you like.

3 ½ cups flour 6 Tbsp butter 3 Tbsp honey 1 cup grapes, halved 2 eggs 5 tsp baking powder 1 cup milk

Preheat oven to 425° F.

Put the flour into a large bowl and add the butter and honey. Mix with a pastry cutter to create a breadcrumb-like mixture. Gently stir in the grape halves. Add the eggs and baking powder and use a wooden spoon to turn the mixture gently. Add half of the milk and keep turning the mixture gently with the spoon to combine. Then add the remaining milk a little at a time and bring everything together to form a very soft, wet dough.

Sprinkle flour onto a clean counter. Put the soft dough onto the floured counter and sprinkle some flour on top. Chaff the dough by folding the dough in half, then turn the dough 90 degrees and repeat. Do this a few times until you’ve formed a smooth dough. Sprinkle more flour onto the work surface and on top of the dough if necessary. Roll the dough out to about 1” thick.

Use a cookie cutter to cut out scones. Place them on a baking tray lined with baking parchment paper. Leftover dough can be rolled again for more scones. Just don't work the dough too much. Let the scones rest for a few minutes. You can glaze the top with egg, milk, or sugar, or leave them plain.

Bake for 15 minutes, or until the scones are risen and golden-brown.
