Oster 2700 instruction manual Scones, Ingredients, Cinnamon Spread, Directions

Scones

Ingredients

3 cups all purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 cup butter or margarine

1 cup buttermilk

1 tablespoon lemon zest

Your choice of raisins; dried cranberries; or butterscotch, cinnamon, or chocolate chips

Cinnamon Spread

1 teaspoon cinnamon, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1/2 pound (230 grams) soft butter or margarine

Directions

Cut softened margarine or butter into the mixture of flour and baking powder (you may use the Oster® Mixmaster® Stand Mixer if you desire). When the mixture resembles coarse meal, add buttermilk and zest and mix until the dough is combined. On a lightly floured counter or board, mix in your choice of raisins, dried cranberries, or those wonderful commercial butterscotch, cinnamon, or chocolate chips. Divide batter into 2 balls and pat into a circle until it is about 1.27cm to 1.90cm (1/2 to 3/4 inch thick. Cut into triangles and bake on a non-stick cookie sheet at 205 ºC (400 ºF) degrees for about 35 to 40 minutes until golden brown. You may sprinkle the tops with about 2 tablespoons of sugar if desired before baking. Serve warm or at room temperature accompanied by cinnamon spread.

Cinnamon Spread

Mix 1 teaspoon cinnamon and 2 tablespoons sugar with ½ pound (230 grams) soft butter or margarine. Label and use as a topping for toast, muffins, or scones. Also great on pancakes and waffles. More cinnamon and a ¼ teaspoon of nutmeg may be added.
