Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 c Flour
1 c Pecans, chopped
1 1/2 tb Baking powder
3/4 ts Salt
3/4 c Cold unsalted butter
2/3 c Maple syrup plus a little
-extra for brushing
1/3 c Heavy cream
Heat oven to 350'F. Grease and flour a 9-x-13 baking
sheet. In a large bowl stir together the flour,
pecans, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the butter
until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Set aside. In
another bowl, whisk together the maple syrup and
cream. Make a well in the center of the dry
ingredients and pour in the liquid mixture, combining
with swift strokes until the dough clings together.
Roll out about two inches thick on a lightly flouted
surface. Cut scones with a three-inch round biscuit
cutter and place on baking sheet about two inches
apart. Brush tops with additional maple syrup, and
bake for fifteen to twenty minutes or until lightly
browned. Transfer to a rack and cool.
