Desserts capture the sweetness of the season. I found myself baking more during this time of the year than at any other time

Ingredients
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter cold
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup bananas mashed
- 1 cup whole milk
- salt
- 1 egg for brushing at time of baking
Instructions
- Preheat oven at 425F. Cover 2 large cookie sheets with parchment paper, Silpat, or lightly butter them.
- In a large bowl sift together the flour, baking soda, a pinch of salt, and ½ cup sugar. Cut the butter into bits and blend it into the flour mixture with your fingertips until the mixture resembles a coarse meal.
- In a small bowl, mix together 2 eggs and the milk until well combined. Add milk mixture and bananas to the flour mixture, gently stirring into the dough just forms.
- On a lightly floured surface form dough into a ball and flatten it into a disk. With a floured rolling pin, roll out dough 1 inch thick and with a 3-inch round cutter cut out rounds, transferring to baking sheets.
- If the dough sticks, dip the cutter into flour before cutting the rounds. Gather scraps and make more rounds in the same manner.
- In a small bowl, beat 1 egg and brush tops rounds, and sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of ugar over them.
- Bake scones in the upper and lower thirds of the oven, switching them halfway through baking, 20 minutes, or until golden. Transfer scones to a rack and cool.
- Serve scones with cream and jam.About 12 scones
