These are very easy to make, especially with a KitchenAid. I like to serve these with fresh whipped cream and berries though they taste just as delicious warm with butter. Ingredients:
3 cups all-purpose flour |
1/3 cup granulated sugar |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
3/4 teaspoon baking soda |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
3/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into bits |
1 tablespoon freshly grated orange zest (2 large oranges) |
1 cup sour cream |
1 cup whole milk |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
3. Blend in the butter until mixture resembles coarse oatmeal.
4. Use hands for this.
5. In a small bowl whsk together the zest, sour cream and milk.
6. Add to the flour mixture.
7. Stir mixture until it jsut forms a soft and sticky dough.
8. Drop dough into 14 mounds at 1 inch intervals onto prepared baking sheets.
9. Pat dough to 1/2 inch thinkness and bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until pale golden.
10. Transfer to a rack and cool.
