Caraway Scones

By Judycakes

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 4-1/2 teaspoons sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 2 teaspoons caraway seeds
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup cold butter
• 1 egg
• 2/3 cup milk

Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, caraway seeds and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In another bowl, whisk egg and milk; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.
Turn onto a floured surface; gently knead 6-8 times. Transfer dough to a greased baking sheet; pat into an 8-in. circle. Cut into eight wedges, but do not separate. Bake at 400° for 17-22 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan to a wire rack. Serve warm. Yield: 8 servings.
