Jelly-Filled Scones with Fruit Spread
Jelly-Filled Scones with Fruit Spread are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or snack option that will satisfy your sweet tooth. These scones are made with a buttery and flaky dough that is filled with your favorite jelly and topped with a fruity spread.
To make 8 servings of Jelly-Filled Scones with Fruit Spread, you will need the following ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup jelly of your choice
- 1/4 cup fruit spread of your choice
To start, preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the cold butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Next, add the milk and stir until the dough comes together. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it gently a few times. Roll the dough out into a circle that is about 1/2 inch thick. Use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out 8 circles.
Place half of the circles onto the prepared baking sheet and spoon a tablespoon of jelly onto each one. Top each jelly-covered circle with another circle of dough and press the edges together to seal.
Bake the scones for 15-18 minutes, or until they are golden brown. While the scones are baking, heat the fruit spread in a small saucepan over low heat until it is melted and smooth.
Once the scones are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Drizzle the melted fruit spread over the top of each scone and serve warm.
These Jelly-Filled Scones with Fruit Spread are a perfect combination of sweet and buttery flavors. They are a great option for breakfast or a mid-day snack. The scones are flaky and tender, while the jelly and fruit spread add a burst of fruity flavor.
