CRANBERRY EGGNOG SCONES



Cranberry Eggnog Scones image

I like making these eggnog scones for my coworkers the week before we all take off for the year and shut down the office. I also bring in a carton of eggnog to be used as creamer in our coffee. They love the little extra treat!

Time 40m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup rolled oats
½ cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
¾ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ cup butter
1 cup dried cranberries
1 cup chopped pecans
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
1 cup eggnog
1 tablespoon coarse sparkling sugar, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Mix flour, oats, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda together in a large mixing bowl. Cut in butter until mixture looks crumbly. Mix in cranberries, pecans, and orange zest until evenly distributed. Stir in eggnog.
  • Turn dough out on a well floured surface and cut into 2 pieces. Keep sprinkling on flour if needed. Form each piece into a disk and gently pat each disk into a round about 6 inches in diameter. Sprinkle each disk with coarse sparkling sugar. Cut each round into 8 wedges using a bench scraper or sharp knife. Cut straight down through the dough so you shear the edges; this helps the scones rise. Don't separate the wedges.
  • Transfer dough circles to the prepared baking sheet. Separate the wedges slightly; there should be about 1 inch between the wider edges.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until scones are just beginning to brown, about 20 minutes. Serve warm.

CRANBERRY EGGNOG CORNBREAD SCONES



Cranberry Eggnog Cornbread Scones image

This is probably one of the best scone recipes I've made. The texture is nice and the taste is excellent. They have just a hint of eggnog, so even those who aren't big fans of the drink will like them.

CRANBERRY EGGNOG CORNBREAD SCONES



Cranberry Eggnog Cornbread Scones image

I found this recipe at Allrecipes. This is an unusual combination, that I wanted to try. I haven't even made scones before, but would like to do so. Some reviewers said the eggnog taste was subtle. So, I have given some optional add ins, for more flavor.

  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; dip hands in flour, and knead the dough about 10 times. Pat the dough out into a disk about 1/2 inch thick.

(Larger shapes, may take a few more minutes of cooking.) EGGNOG GLAZE: Mix ingredients together, until smooth. If too thick, add very small amounts of eggnog, until proper drizzling consistency. Drizzle over scones with a spoon or put glaze in a plastic baggie, cut off a corner tip, and drizzle that way.
