Onion-Rye Scones
- 1 1/2 cups rye flour
- 3/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons nonhydrogenated margarine, softened
- 2 tablespoons molasses or maple syrup
- 1/4 cup rice milk, or as needed
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, quartered and thinly sliced
- Poppy seeds
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Combine the first 4 (dry) ingredients in a mixing bowl and stir together.
- Work the margarine into the flour mixture with a pastry blender or the tines of a fork until the mixture resembles a coarse meal.
- In a small bowl, whisk the molasses together with the rice milk.
- Work into the flour mixture, adding enough rice milk to form a soft dough.
- If the dough is sticky, work in some additional flour.
- Transfer the dough to a well-floured board and knead briefly with floured hands.
- Form the dough into a ball, then roll into a round 9 inches in diameter and place on a lightly oiled baking sheet.
- Score the round with a knife, about halfway through the dough, into 8 equal wedges.
- For the topping, heat the oil in a small skillet.
- Add the onion and saute over medium heat until lightly browned.
- Distribute the onion evenly over the scones, then lightly press them down with a spatula.
- Sprinkle with poppy seeds.
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the tops are golden.
- Let cool somewhat before slicing.
