Scones are my easy get-up-and-bake breakfast treat; and I especially love that it's on the table in less than 30 minutes! Mine are, as usual, not typical, but they are tasty...and super easy.2 cups white whole wheat flour
1/2 t salt
1 T + 1t baking powder
1 t ground cinnamon
1 t ground cardamom
1 t ground ginger
4 T organic granulated sugar
3/4 C lowfat cottage cheese
1/2 C lowfat milk
2 T vanilla
1/4 C butter
That's the base. Then add whatever ingredients you wish. These are fresh blackberry and dried blueberry. The second batch from this morning are candied ginger and bittersweet chocolate. Use your imagination!
Preheat oven to 400. Mix all of the dry ingredients in a bowl. Add wet ingredients and cut with a pastry knife until it comes together in a ball. It will be moist. Turn the ball out onto a baking stone. Sprinkle with ground almonds and press down to form a circle. Cut into 8ths and pull the pieces apart slightly. Sprinkle tops with sugar and bake for 20 minutes or until firm to the touch.
