1 c Self-rising flour
1/2 ts Salt
1 c Whole-wht self-rising flour
2 ts Cold butter,
-cut into small pieces 1/2 c Milk (about)
Milk to brush on scones 2 tb Honey
2 md Ripe bananas, mashed
Butter A bit heavier than traditional scones, because of the
whole-wheat flour. Preheat oven to 450F (230C). Lightly grease a
large baking sheet. Sift self-rising flour and salt into a large
bowl; stir in whole-wheat flour. With your fingers, rub in butter
until mixture is crumbly. Make a well in center of mixture. Pour in
1/2 cup milk and the honey and mix well. Add bananas and mix with a
fork to form a soft dough. Turn out onto a floured surface and
knead lightly. Roll out with a floured rolling pin or pat dough
with your hands to make a round about 3/4-inch thick. Cut in rounds
with 2-inch fluted or plain cookie cutter. Place 1 to 1 1/2 inches
apart on baking sheet; brush tops lightly with milk. Bake 10 to 12
minutes or until well risen and browned on bottom. Transfer to a
wire rack and cool 5 minutes. Split and serve warm with butter.
Makes about 16 scones.
