Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups flour
2 tablespoons flour
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter, cold, cut into cubes
1 piece egg
1/4 cup whipping cream
1/3 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons vanilla
3/4 cup rhubarb

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place parchment paper on cookie sheet or pizza pan.
  • In a large bowl, combine flour (total is 2 cups PLUS the 2 tablespoons), brown sugar, baking powder and salt.
  • Cut in butter until mixture is crumb sized. You can also combine the flour, brown sugar, baking soda and salt in a food processor. Pulse a few times to to mix all together, then add cold butter to processor and pulse a few time until mixture is crumbly and when you squeeze a handful the flour sticks together.
  • In a medium bowl combine the wet ingredients. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until just comined.
  • Fold in rhubarb.
  • Flour a counter or cutting board and place dough on the foured surface.
  • Press out the dough until it's a 1/2" thick circle. Place onto prepared cookie sheet and cut into 8 even wedges. Separate wedges by about 1/4" so all sides will brown evenly. Optional: Brush wedges with cream and sprinkle with sugar. Also you can spread a simple glaze onto cooled scones if you wish.
  • Bake for 18 - 22 minutes.
