Whole Wheat Scones

1. Preheat Oven and Mix Dry Ingredients

Preheat your oven to 400°F. In a large bowl, mix together the unbleached whole-wheat pastry flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.

2. Add Cream

Gently stir in the cream into the dry ingredients until the dough begins to come together and becomes slightly sticky.

3. Knead and Shape Dough

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead briefly until it is smooth. Pat the dough into an 8-inch circle.

4. Apply Butter and Sugar

Brush the top of the dough with melted butter and sprinkle with additional sugar.

5. Cut and Prepare for Baking

Cut the circle of dough into 8 equal wedges and arrange them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spaced about 1 inch apart.

6. Bake the Scones

Bake the scones in the preheated oven for 17 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
