Maple Pecan Fondant Scones

Maple Pecan Fondant Scones are a delectable treat that will satisfy your sweet tooth. These scones are made with a combination of maple syrup, pecans, and fondant, creating a rich and indulgent flavor.

To make these scones, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 1/4 cup fondant
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt

To start, preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the chilled 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 chopped pecans, maple syrup, heavy cream, and fondant to the bowl. Mix until the dough comes together and forms a ball. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it gently for a few seconds.
Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out to about 1/2 inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out the scones and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the scones for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top. Remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
These Maple Pecan Fondant Scones are a perfect combination of sweet and nutty flavors. The fondant adds a creamy texture to the scones, while the pecans provide a satisfying crunch. These scones are best served warm with a cup of coffee or tea.
