LEMON AND LAVENDER SCONES



Lemon and Lavender Scones image

These lovely old-fashioned scones are very light; they will literally melt in your mouth! The recipe is very versatile. Substitute your favorite flavor of yogurt and add a tablespoon or two of a chopped complementary fruit, raisins, or currants instead of the lavender. Serve with honey, fruit preserves, or if you're lucky enough to be able to get it, clotted cream.

Time 30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 teaspoon baking soda
½ cup lemon yogurt
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for kneading
⅓ cup white sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ cup cold butter, cut into cubes
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 egg, beaten
1 ½ teaspoons lavender flowers
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon butter, melted, or as needed
1 teaspoon white sugar, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Stir baking soda and yogurt together in a bowl.
  • Sift flour, 1/3 cup sugar, and baking powder together in a bowl. Cut cold butter into flour mixture using a pastry cutter or two forks until mixture is crumbly.
  • Mix yogurt mixture, 2 tablespoons melted butter, egg, lavender, and lemon zest in a separate bowl. Stir yogurt-lavender mixture into flour mixture until just moistened.
  • Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead 8 to 10 times, adding more flour if dough is too sticky.
  • Divide dough into 2 pieces and place on an ungreased baking sheet. Pat and shape each piece into a 6-inch circle. Score each circle into 6 wedges using a sharp floured knife. Brush tops with 1 tablespoon melted butter; sprinkle with 1 teaspoon white sugar.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until scones are just golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from oven, break into wedges, and cool on a wire rack.

DAIRY-FREE LAVENDER LEMON SCONES RECIPE BY TASTY



Dairy-Free Lavender Lemon Scones Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: lemon, almond milk, whole wheat pastry flour, organic cane sugar, baking powder, salt, poppy seeds, food-grade lavender, coconut oil, large egg, powdered sugar

Provided by Crystal Hatch

Categories     Breakfast

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lemon
½ cup almond milk, plus 1-2 teaspoons
2 ½ cups whole wheat pastry flour, plus more for dusting
½ cup organic cane sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons poppy seeds
1 tablespoon food-grade lavender
½ cup coconut oil, solid
1 large egg
1 cup powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Zest the lemon into a small bowl and set aside.
  • Juice the lemon and set aside 1 teaspoon for the glaze. Combine the rest with ½ cup (120 ml) of almond milk and set aside for 5-10 minutes while you make the rest of the dough. (The almond milk will curdle, that's okay! This creates a dairy-free substitute for buttermilk.)
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, poppy seeds, and lavender. Whisk well.
  • Add the coconut oil and cut it into the flour mixture with a pastry cutter, a fork, or your fingers until the flour mixture is crumbly and there are no large chunks left.
  • Add the lemon zest, curdled almond milk, and egg. Fold the ingredients until the dough forms.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Sprinkle with just enough flour to keep the dough from sticking as you form it into a disc about 1½-2 inches (4-5 cm) thick.
  • Cut the dough into 8 triangular scones. Transfer the scones to the prepared baking sheet, spacing evenly.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool.
  • Make the glaze: In a small bowl, combine powdered sugar, remaining 1-2 teaspoons of almond milk, and the reserved teaspoon of lemon juice. Whisk until smooth.
  • Drizzle the glaze over the cooled scones and let it harden, 5-10 minutes.
  • Serve with hot tea.
  • Enjoy!

LEMON LAVENDER SCONES



Lemon Lavender Scones image

I was inspired by English scone recipes and decided to make two great tastes that taste great together! Rather than rolling out, these are simple drop scones. There are several recipes for lavender sugar out there (cheaper but takes about 3-4 weeks to mature), or you can use storebought (more expensive and not really something you can find easily in grocery stores, but it's ready to eat and use.)

Categories     Scones

Time 20m

Yield 12 scones, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, well-sifted
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon lavender sugar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
3 tablespoons lemon curd
2/3 cup 1% low-fat milk
1 egg white
coarse lavender sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • First things first, make sure you are using matured lavender sugar if using homemade!
  • Sift the flour, baking powder,salt, and lavender sugar together in a mixing bowl.
  • Add the butter and lemon curd, mix until crumbly.
  • With an electric beater on low, blend the milk into the mixture. It should be a pretty thick dough.
  • Put some flour on your hands and knead the dough.
  • Preheat the oven to 450F, and grease a cookie sheet. Lightly dust it with flour.
  • Break off hunks of dough about the size of your palm (or maybe a little smaller), and flatten them a little, spacing them out on the baking sheet at least 2-3 inches apart.
  • You can also roll the dough out if you like to use specialty biscuit/cookie cutters.
  • Make a wash out of an egg white, and brush some on to the scone tops and sprinkle with some coarse sugar (namely more lavender sugar.).
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown on top. Let cool and serve with a nice honey-butter or other flavored butter, jam, or lavender cream.

LEMON LAVENDER BLUEBERRY SCONES



Lemon Lavender Blueberry Scones image

Outta Sight! Healthy, reduced fat, and unbelievably tasty! I served these at a family brunch and they were received quite well. If omitting the fruit, add nuts for textural stimulation. These would be great at Easter Brunch or in late summer when blueberries and lavender are in season. Recipe adapted from jemangelaville.com recipe

SF BLUEBERRY, LEMON & LAVENDER SCONES



SF Blueberry, Lemon & Lavender Scones image

I have been working on shifting some of my favorite recipes as I have shifted to a lower sugar diet for health reasons. PLUS, my local shop had been out for 2 weeks! So I was desperate. These are a great substitute and a great recipe to make other combinations! SMALL BATCH - I am transitioning to cook for 1. Note: due to fresh fruit they do soften and fruit bleeds as they sit.

SCONES

  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Knead very lightly and form a 5" x 5" circle that is 1" thick. Cut circle into four wedges and place on prepared baking sheet.
  • Whisk reserved egg white, and brush over wedges. Sprinkle with additional Monkfruit if you desire. Bake 12-13 minutes, until golden brown.
  • Let cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer onto a wire rack to cool completely, about 20 minutes.
  • GLAZE: In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sweetener and lemon juice until smooth. Spoon over cooled scones. Enjoy.
