Currant Scone Recipe Step by Step Guide
This Currant Scones recipe elevates baking. Lift your morning or afternoon tea with these buttery treats that wonderfully combine flakiness and currant richness.
– 4½ cups all-purpose flour
– 2 tablespoon sugar
– 2 tablespoon baking powder
– 1 teaspoon baking soda
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 2 sticks
– 1 cup currant
– 2¼ cup heavy cream
– 1 egg yolk
Ingredient
1
Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, soda, and salt in a large bowl. Just whisk them roughly to mix everything.
2
After the butter has been cut into small pieces and allowed to cool, add it to the bowl containing the flour.
3
A pastry blender or two forks should be used to chop the butter into little pea-sized pieces.
4
Mix currants into the mixture. Make a center well. Pour two cups of heavy cream over the flour mixture and stir with a spatula.
5
The mixture may be too dry; add heavy cream tablespoons at a time. Flip the dough and roll it into an 11"x7" rectangle on a floured board.
6
Do not knead the dough—it will crush the currants. The rectangle should be one inch thick.
7
Cut the dough into 16 triangles with a pastry cutter or knife. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for two hours to stiffen the dough.
8
Turn the oven on to 375°F. Brush the scones with the egg yolk mixture and ¼ cup heavy cream before putting them in the oven.
9
If desired, dust the top with sugar. After baking them for thirty to thirty-five minutes, let them cool on a wire rack.
