Cardamon Pine Nut Scones
1 1/2 c flour
1/2 c oat flour
1/2 c sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp (to taste) ground cardamom
1/4 c pine nuts, ground
4 tbs butter
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 c cream (as needed)
Place the dry ingredients in a bowl and stir to mix. Add the pine nuts and the
butter and cut into the flour mixture. Stir in the eggs and add just enough
cream to make a stif dough. Put the dough on a floured board and pat it out into
a circle about 1/4-1/2 inch thick. Cut into wedges and place wedges on a cookie
sheet at least one inch apart. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes or til nicely
browned. Sprinkle with additional cardamom and serve with plum jam.
Note: ----- You may increase the amount of cardamom or substitute coriander for
a stronger flavor. You can also leave out the pine nuts and add a small amount
of additional butter.
