This morning I woke up with nostalgia for scones. At least you know what are my dreams (unlike some people ...). Despite of the fact that I first tasted scones in England, at a famous café, my expectations were rather small. In my "baking" box were cranberries and ginger. The combination was given. Well, because I try to always find the healthier way, the choice felt on wholewheat flour. The result?
This was my inspiration.
Ingredients:
1 cup of whole wheat flour
1 cup of plain flour
spoon of baking powder
pinch of baking soda
pinch of salt
teaspoon of cinnamon
spoon of vanilla sugar
1/2 cup of cane sugar (rather less than more, you will eat them with jam which is quite sweet)
teaspoon of honey
teaspoon of grated ginger
120 g of butter, softened
1 egg
1/2 cup of milk
2 tablespoons of curd
200 g of cranberries
Preparation:
Mix the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, salt, soda, cinnamon, sugar).
Mix the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, salt, soda, cinnamon, sugar).
Add honey, eggs, butter, milk and curd. Whip it together and finally, add cranberries with ginger.
Bake it for 20 minutes at 180 degrees.
I recommend making a large gaps between the scones so that it will not merge into one big pancake.
TIP: What about to make scones with blueberries, strawberries, bananas ... or just plain scones?
Serve them with jam and clotted cream. The best is Cornish from Marks and Spencer.
