Ingredients
- 1 cup unbleached flour
- 1 cup whole wheat four
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 Tablespoons matcha powder
- 1 Tablespoon baking powder
- 4 Tablespoon butter
- 2 eggs pull out a tablespoon for brushing the scones
- 6 Tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 Tablespoons cream or milk
- 2-3 teaspoons Coarse sugar for decorating optional
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, matcha and salt.
- Cut the butter into the flour mixture with a fork or pastry tool, until butter pieces are tiny and flour-coated. Mixture will resemble crumbs but will still be fairly floury.
- In a separate bowl, beat two eggs. Remove about a tablespoon of the beaten egg and reserve for egg wash. Add the cream, vanilla and honey into the beaten eggs and combine well. Stir the egg mixture into the dry ingredients, being careful not to overmix. Add additional cream or flour if needed.
- Remove scone dough to a floured surface. Knead once or twice, then pat into a 3x15 inch rectangle. It’s okay if dough is a bit sticky. Cut the rectangle into five 3 x 3 squares, then cut each square on a diagonal to make ten scones.
- Place each scone on a baking sheet topped with parchment. Brush scones with the reserved tablespoon of beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
- Place rack in center of over then bake at 400 F for approximately 12 minutes, until scones are slightly golden. Cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or cool.
