Ice Cream Scones

Oh la la! Scones à la glace... These darlings have such an inviting texture, fluffy on the inside, crisp on the outside.
So many variations are possible! Berries, coconut, spices <3

The basic Scone à la Glace:

31/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
4 teaspoons cream of tartar
1/4 cup softened butter
1/4 cup coconut oil
2 cups softened rich vanilla ice cream

Preheat oven to 380-415 degrees (depending on oven)

Sift together dry ingredients. Combine softened butter and coconut oil until smooth, set in the fridge. Mix melted ice cream with the dry ingredients. Cut the cold butter/coconut oil mixture into small pieces and add it to the dough. Using your hands, kneed the butter and oil into the dough.

Take dough out in clumps and put onto baking sheet (covered in parchment is ideal)

Place in oven and bake until fluffy and slightly golden.

My basic Scone à la Glace includes 1 teaspoon cardamom and 1 tablespoon vanilla extract, ground vanilla beans or both.

If adding berries, freeze them first and loosely mix in (unless you want a blue or pink scone)

Try them with unsweetened shredded coconut

Add a few tablespoons of sugar or sprinkle sugar on top if you want a sweeter taste

Super delish with scrambled or fried eggs on the side and/or with a hot cup of tea!

Let me know how yours come out ;)
