Chocolate Chip Banana Scones Recipes

CHOCOLATE CHIP BANANA SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
• In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, brown sugar, and cinnamon.
• Cut the butter into the mixture using a pastry cutter or a fork until the mixture resembles very coarse sand. Don't worry if you have butter the size of peas throughout the mixture, this is fine. Mix in the chocolate chips.
• In a medium bowl mix together 1/2 cup of the heavy cream and banana.
• Make a well in the center of the dry mixture and pour the cream mixture into the well. Mix the dough together using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula. It will be slightly dry, but will hold together. Don't over-mix.
• Place the dough onto a lightly floured surface and form it into a disk about 1 1/2 - 2- inches thick. Using a knife or a pizza cutter, cut the dough into 6 wedges.
• Place the wedges onto the prepared baking sheet, and brush with the remaining 2 tablespoons of heavy cream. Sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
• Bake for 15- 20 minutes until the edges are golden brown.
• Whisk together the butter, powdered sugar, cinnamon, and milk until smooth. Drizzle the icing onto the scones and allow it to set.
• Serve warm or at room temperature.

BANANA CHOCOLATE CHIP SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400F degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Cut in the butter, using a pastry blender or your fingers. Alternatively, you can pulse the ingredients in a food processor. Mix until mixture resembles coarse meal (uneven pieces of butter in the mixture is good!). Add 3/4 cup heavy cream and vanilla extract and stir with a spatula or a fork until dough begins to form. If dough is too crumbly, add more heavy cream - up to 1/4 cup. Don't overmix. Gently fold in bananas and chocolate chips. The dough will be slightly sticky.
• Transfer dough to a floured surface and knead dough gently, about 5-6 times, until a ball forms. Pat the dough into a 9-inch (22 cm) circle, about 3/4-inch thick. Cut the circle into 8 even wedges.
• Place the scones on prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with a bit of heavy cream. Sprinkle with coarse sugar. Bake scones for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown. Transfer baking sheet to a wire rack and allow it to cool for 10 minutes. While scones are still hot, sprinkle again with coarse sugar for extra crunchiness.
• These scones are delicious either warm or at room temperature.
• Scones are best eaten the same day they are made, but they can be frozen for up to 1 month.

CHOCOLATE CHIP BANANA SCONES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper; set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Todd in the butter ensuring each piece is coated in flour. Using a pastry blender, cut the butter into the flour mixture until crumbly and no larger than the size of a small pea.
• In a small bowl, whisk together cream, mashed banana and vanilla. Add the wet ingredients to the flour mixture and stir until a tacky dough begins to form. It should not stick to your hands. Add chocolate chips and continue to mix a few more times.
• On a dry and floured surface, knead the dough about 7 to 10 times or until a ball of dough comes together. If the dough is sticky, sprinkle flour about a tablespoon at a time to where the dough no longer sticks to your hands. Divide the dough in half and form each part into a round at least 1 inch thick in the center. Transfer onto the prepared baking sheet. Using a bench scraper or a long knife, create 4 cuts from one side to the other, all the way through to the bottom of the dough. Do not separate the slices.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Let scones cool completely or until just warm before re-cutting the slices and serving. ENJOY!
