LeanerMe Chocolate Chip Scones

LeanerMe Chocolate Chip Scones

So my family is going through an obsession with scones. It’s scone this and scone that. It’s gotten to the point where my cousins have made a different kind of scone for the past two months. But before this craze ends soon I want you to be a part of it. Join the obsession. C’mon I know you want to bake some scones. They’re easy and quick to make. Below is the recipe that we love the most so far, and just a heads up I am not sorry for introducing you to your new obsession!

What you need:

• 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 4 tsp Leaner Creamer
• ½ tsp salt
• ¼ cup sugar
• 2 ¼ tsp baking powder
• 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
• 2 large eggs
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• ¾ Cup heavy cream
• 1 ½ cups chocolate chips

What you need to do:

Step 1: Preheat oven to 400° Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2: In a medium bowl, mix flour, salt, sugar, baking powder, and Leaner Creamer. 

Step 3: Add the butter. Use your fingers to work the butter into the flour.

Step 4: In a separate bowl, whisk the heavy cream, eggs, and vanilla extract together. Once you’re done whisking, add these ingredients to your dry bowl (Step 2 bowl).  Add the chocolate chips.

Step 5: Mix until the dough is moist.

Step 6:  Flour the surface you will be working on.

Step 7: Place the dough, and shape the dough into a circle (8 inch circle that’s ¾ inch thick). Cut the circle into wedges then move each wedge onto the baking sheet with the parchment paper.

Step 8: Brush the tops of the scones with heavy cream.                    

Step 9: Bake for about 20 minutes or until they’re golden brown.

Step 10: ENJOY!
