Whip up these quick scones in just 20 minutes for a delicious breakfast surprise while your loved ones snooze.
Ingredients:
  • 3 tablespoons Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped nuts, toasted*
  • 2 tablespoons firm butter or margarine
  • 2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup firm butter or margarine
  • 1/2 cup coarsely chopped nuts, toasted*
  • 1/3 cup pure maple syrup or maple-flavored syrup
  • 1 egg
  • About 2 tablespoons milk
  • Additional milk
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (375°F for dark or nonstick cookie sheet). Combine 3 tablespoons flour, granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons nuts in a small bowl. Use a pastry blender or fork to cut in 2 tablespoons butter until crumbly. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine 2 cups of flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add 1/2 cup of butter and mix until the mixture resembles fine crumbs. Mix in 1/2 cup of nuts. Add maple syrup, egg, and just enough of the 2 tablespoons of milk for the dough to come together and form a ball.
  • Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and coat it gently with flour. Knead it lightly 10 times, then shape it into an 8-inch circle on an ungreased cookie sheet. Brush it with extra milk, sprinkle on the topping, and cut it into 8 wedges without separating them.
  • Bake until golden brown for 15 to 18 minutes. Remove from the cookie sheet right away and gently separate wedges. Serve while warm.
