Ingredients

Servings: 8
  • 7-10 Tbsp Ingredients for about 8 large or 12-16 small scones:
  • 1 Apples
  • 90 g Muesli with dried fruits (e.g. Birchermüsli)
  • 85 ml cold buttermilk
  • 1 Egg (Gr. M)
  • 250 g Flour
  • 50 g whole cane sugar, e.g. Muscovado
  • 2 TEASPOONS Baking Powder
  • 1/2 TEASPOON Baking soda
  • 1/4 TEASPOON Salt
  • 125 g cold butter (diced)
  • 7-10 Tbsp Flour
  • baking paper

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/circulating air: 175 °C/gas: see manufacturer). Line a baking tray with baking paper. Wash the apple, do not peel it! Quarter the apple, remove seeds and cut into small pieces. Mix with muesli. Whisk cold buttermilk and egg. Mix 250 g flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl

  2. 2

    Add cold butter to the flour mixture. Rub in coarse crumbs with your fingertips. Do this quickly! Stir in the buttermilk and egg mixture briefly. Then add the apple and muesli mixture and mix in. Stir only until a dough is just formed

  3. 3

    For 8 large scones, pour the dough onto a lightly floured work surface. The dough is a little dry, which is good. Only knead lightly and shape into a rectangular plate (approx. 10 x 25 cm) about 2 cm thick with your hands. Cut crosswise into pieces of approx. 6 cm and place on the baking tray

  4. 4

    Bake in a hot oven for about 15 minutes until the scones have slightly coloured. Take them out and let them cool down for at least 10 minutes on a cake rack
