Banana Nut Cream Scones Recipes

BANANA-NUT SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a cookie sheet.
• Place bananas in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until mashed. Add brown sugar, yogurt, egg, and vanilla, beating until smooth. Add cinnamon, baking powder, and salt, beating to combine. Add flour, 1 cup at a time, beating just until combined after each addition. Do not overmix.
• Grate chilled butter into batter using a cheese grater. Beat to combine. Fold in walnuts using a rubber spatula. Drop batter by generous 1/4 cupfuls onto the prepared cookie sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges and tops of scones are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center of a scone comes out with only crumbs, 17 to 20 minutes.
• When scones have a few minutes left in the oven, combine maple syrup and butter for glaze in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook until butter melts completely; do not boil. Remove from heat. Add just enough confectioners' sugar, whisking in a small amount at a time, to reach desired consistency for glaze.
• Drizzle glaze over scones using a spoon or whisk.

BANANA NUT CREAM SCONES

Steps:

• 1. In a stand up mixer combine all dry ingredients. Mix well till incorporated. Add melted butter and mix till resembles coarse crumbs. Add egg, bananas, buttermilk. Mix completely
• 2. I used a large pizza pan and sprayed with cooking spray then put a piece of parchment paper to cover it. Your batter will be sticky this is OK Pour your mixture onto the parchment paper, now with well floured hands make a 10 inch circle on the paper.
• 3. This part is tricky so keep your hands floured otherwise the dough will stick and not form like u want. Should only be 10 inches so it will be thick that is what u want. Now flour a knife or pizza cutter and slice 8-10 triangles, but only separate slightly for now.
• 4. Bake at 350* for 25 minutes Remove from oven and make sure scones are completely separated now, if not cut all the way thru. Put back in oven for 10 more minutes Remove and cool completely.
• 5. Here is the frosting:: 4oz cream cheese softened 1 1/2 cups of powdered sugar 5 T. heavy cream 1 t. Vanilla extract Put all of this in bowl and beat till well combined, then fold in 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts.
• 6. Once scones are cool I lifted mine with the parchment paper into a Tupperware dish that I use for my pies and put it right in, fit perfect for this job. I frosted the scones and put in frig. this will keep up to three days in frig
• 7. When you pull out of frig I just lift up on the parchment paper to help see the lines I had already made in the scones. Once u frost might be hard unless you separate totally but I left mine together. Helps get moist..
