Lemon Poppy Seed Scones Recipe
I love Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins and now I can add this Lemon Poppy Seed Scones recipe to the list!
Lemony and packed with poppy seeds, I am in love! Fortunately, so are the kids and hubs. I prefer that touch of sweetness. These are excellent with a cup of hot coffee.
This is will surely become one of my go to scones recipes. It’s delicious and easy. From Country Living!
Lemon Poppy Seed Scones Recipe
From Country Living.
Ingredients
- 2 Cups Flour
- 3 Tablespoons Sugar
- 2 Tablespoons Poppy Seeds
- 2 large Lemons, zested (I subbed in 2 Tablespoons Lemon Peel)
- 1 tablespoon Baking Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1/2 Tablespoon Salt
- 1 Stick Cold Butter, Chunked
- 1/2 Cup Heavy Cream (I used Milk)
- 1/4 Cup Lemon Juice
- 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice, for glaze
- 1/2 Cup Powdered Sugar
Instructions
- 400* Oven.
- In a large bowl, combine dry ingredients.
- Cut in butter.
- Pour in Heavy Cream (or Milk) and the 1/4 Cup Lemon Juice.
- Stir just until combined.
- I mix these up on a floured cutting board, shaping into an 8" circle. Using a pizza cutter, slice into 8 wedges and slightly separate them on a parchment lined sheet.
- Bake 12 -- 15 minutes or until light golden brown.
- Transfer to wire rack and let cool.
- Combine glaze ingredients and top on cooled scones.
Notes
I subbed in Milk for the Heavy Cream with great results.
