Description

Ingredients

• 2 cups all purpouse flour
• ½ cup unsalted butter, cold & cut into cubes
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 2.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 1.5 teaspoons cinnamon powder
• ¼ teaspoon ginger powder
• ¼ teaspoon nutmeg powder
• ¼ cup light brown sugar
• ¼ cup granulated white sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ¼ cup heavy cream
• ¼ cup applesauce, unsweetened
• 1.25 cup chopped apples, I did not peel them, you may do so
• turbinado sugar
• heavy cream, to brush on top.

Directions

• In a bowl whisk together all purpose flour, cinnamon powder, nutmeg powder and ginger powder. Add the baking powder and whisk.
• Now add both the sugars and whisk to combine. Set aside.
• In another measuring jar or bowl, whisk together egg and vanilla extract.
• Add in the heavy cream and unsweetened apple sauce and whisk to combine. Set aside.
• Now take cubed cold butter out of the refrigerator and add it to the flour mix.
• Cut in the butter using a pastry cutter or two forks till the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• Add in the liquid mix to the flour mix and also add the chopped apples.
• Mix everything together. Dump it onto a floured surface (the dough will be sticky) and work with your hands to bring it together in form of a 8 inch circle.
• Using a sharp knife cut the circle into 8 triangles. Brush each triangle with heavy cream and sprinkle turbinado sugar on top.
• Bake the scones at 400 F degrees for 20-25 minutes. Enjoy warm apple salted caramel scones with coffee!
