Sweet Potato Scones
- Wet Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup of sweet potato puree (must be cold)
- 1/4 cup whole milk (or half and half)
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla
- Dry Ingredients:
- 2 cups white flour
- 1/2 cup wheat flour
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 Tablespoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- Add: 3/4 cups cold butter
- Glaze:
- 1 1/4 cup powered sugar
- 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- Bake 1 medium sweet potato - puree n a food processor with a bit of water (just enough to make the puree). Cool and refridgerate.
- Mix wet ingredients with whisk.
- Place dry ingredients in a food processor and add 3/4 cup cold butter (stick & a half) - chopped
- Pulse food processor until butter is the size of small peas.
- Fold dry ingredients into wet ingredients and mix. Batter will be stiff but a bit sticky. I typically just make "drop" scones, but if you want to make a more traditional cut scone, refrigerate batter so it is easier to roll-out.
- Line baking sheet with parchment paper and bake at 350 for 15 - 17 minutes.
- Remove scones from the oven, wait for 5 minutes and drizzle with 1 Tablespoon glaze.
