Orange and Cardamom Scones

Created by: Howcan Team

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 large egg
  • Zest of 1 orange
  • 1 teaspoon ground cardamom
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2-3 tablespoons fresh orange juice

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups of flour, 1/4 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  • Add the cold butter pieces to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1 large egg, orange zest, ground cardamom, and vanilla extract.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together.
  • Pat the dough into a circle about 1 inch thick. Use a sharp knife to cut the circle into 8 wedges.
  • Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet and brush the tops with a little heavy cream.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown and cooked through.
  • While the scones are baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together 1/2 cup powdered sugar and 2-3 tablespoons of fresh orange juice until smooth.
  • Once the scones are done, transfer them to a wire rack to cool slightly. Drizzle the glaze over the warm scones.
  • Serve the scones warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
