Asiago Scones Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Combine all ingredients except for egg and sugar in large bowl.
• Stir until moistened, mixture will be thick.
• Pile mixture into eight small mounds onto a non-stick cookie sheet.
• Brush scones with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar.
• Bake for 12-15 minutes until light golden brown.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Put the flour, salt, baking powder and 2 tablespoons of the sugar in a food processor and pulse to combine. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles cornmeal.
• Add the egg and just enough cream to form a slightly sticky dough. If it's too sticky, add a little flour, but very little; it should still stick a little to your hands.
• Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead once or twice, then press it into a 3/4-inch-thick circle and cut into 2-inch rounds with a biscuit cutter or glass. Put the rounds on an ungreased baking sheet. Gently reshape the leftover dough and cut again. Brush the top of each scone with a bit of cream and sprinkle with a little of the remaining sugar.
• Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, or until the scones are a beautiful golden brown. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°.
• Stir together first 3 ingredients in a large bowl.
• Cut butter into flour mixture with a pastry blender until crumbly and mixture resembles small peas. Freeze 5 minutes.
• Add 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons cream, pear, cheese, and rosemary, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened.
• Turn dough out onto wax paper; gently press or pat dough into a 7-inch round (mixture will be crumbly). Cut round into 8 wedges.
• Place wedges 2 inches apart on a lightly greased baking sheet. Brush tops of wedges with remaining 2 tablespoons cream just until moistened.
• Bake at 450° for 13 to 15 minutes or until golden.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°F. Lightly spray cookie sheet with cooking spray.
• In large bowl, mix flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter, using pastry blender or fork, until mixture is crumbly and looks like small peas. Freeze 5 minutes. Add 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons of the whipping cream, the pear, cheese and rosemary; stir just until moistened.
• On cookie sheet, pat dough with floured hands into 7-inch round (mixture will be crumbly). Cut round into 8 wedges, but do not separate. Brush dough with remaining 2 tablespoons whipping cream.
• Bake 13 to 15 minutes or until golden. Carefully separate wedges; serve warm.
