Lazy Saturday Morning Breakfast
I woke up Saturday morning exhausted, thus avoiding my laundry. So, I baked. These little buggers made for a VERY delicious breakfast! In fact, I think they made a better Sunday breakfast after having sat for a day. These are pretty sweet and could probably be dessert, but if you know me at all, you know that is how I roll morning, noon and night!
Raspberry Chocolate Chip Scones
adapted from Annie Eats
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cut into pieces
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
3/4 cup frozen raspberries
1/2 cup vanilla yogurt
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 large egg
For egg wash:
1 large egg
1 tablespoon buttermilk
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Cut the butter into small pieces and blend into the flour mixture. Stir in the chocolate chips and raspberries. In a separate bowl, combine the yogurt, vanilla and egg. Add to the flour mixture until just combined.
Transfer to a lightly floured surface and kneed the dough before shaping into a 7 inch circle. Cut dough into 8 triangles and transfer to the baking sheet. Make the egg wash by combining the egg and buttermilk and brush onto the tops of the scones. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes.
I make scones all the time and never thought to try yogurt in them! The raspberry and chocolate together---YUM!
