Dried Cherry Scones
1/2 c. dried tart red cherries
2 T apricot nectar or cherry brandy
2 c. flour
3 T sugar
1 T baking powder
6 T chilled butter
1/4 c. chopped walnuts or pecans, toasted (opt.)
1 beaten egg
1/3 c. light cream or milk
1 beaten egg
In small bowl, combine dried cherries and brandy or apricot nectar.
Let stand 15 min.
In a bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
Cut in butter. Add walnuts or pecans; toss until mixed. Make a
well in the center of dry mixture.
In small bowl stir together the egg and milk or cream. Add the
egg mixture and the cherry mixture to dry mixture all at once.
Using a fork, stir until moistened.
Knead on floured surface 12-15 strokes. Cut into desired shapes.
(I just cut into traditional wedges, but this can be made into a
drop recipe by increasing the liquid to 1/2 c.)
Brush tops with milk, sprinkle with sugar.
Bake at 400 for 12-15 min.
