Grandma Johnson's Scones
Deelish! I just put the leftovers away, and know that they will be a great pick-me-up for my co-workers tomorrow morning!
I made this recipe my own by taking others advice to use 1c whole wheat flour and 3c all-purpose, and also to add 1 tsp. cinnamon, and 1 tsp. vanilla (added with the egg).
I made it "lighter" by ony 1/2c sugar, l. cream cheese for half the butter, and fat free sour cream. I also added 1/8 tsp. nutmeg to everything from research on scones.
For high altitute baking, I added another egg (can also do egg substitute), and subtracted a couple tablespoons of flour.
I then split the dough in half and added raisins, soaked in hot water for five minutes and coated with cinnamon and sugar, to half. To the other half, I added chopped up walnuts and chocolate chips. Both are wonderful! I then brushed milk on the tops, and sprinkled on cinnamon/sugar before baking.
Thanks Grandma Johnson! :0)
