Description

These white chocolate cranberry scones make the perfect holiday treat. Soft, buttery, tender and just the right crumble. Have them warm with some butter, jam or english cream!

Ingredients

1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
6 tbsp cold unsalted butter, cubed
6 tbsp heavy whipping cream
1 egg replacement (I use Bob's Red Mill egg replacer)
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup mini white chocolate chips
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1 tbsp heavy whipping cream for brushing on top

ICING

2 tbsp water or milk(for a creamier consistency)
1 cup icing sugar
1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
In a large bowl, whisk the flour with the sugar, baking powder and salt. Using your fingertips, blend in the butter until pea-size pieces form.
3
Stir in the heavy cream, vanilla and egg replacement until a dough starts to form. Add in white chocolate and dried cranberries.
4
Roll the dough into a 1/2-inch-thick round. Cut into 8 triangles equal thickness. Brush top with heavy cream.
5
Transfer to the prepared sheet and bake for 14-16 minutes, until golden.
6
Combine all icing toppings. Once scones are cooled, drizzle with icing and serve.
