Instructions

- 3. Little by little incorporate the mixture of liquids into the mixture of dry ingredients until they are mixed well until they form a mass. (If the mixture still looks very liquid or sticky, use flour until it is a compact dough).
- 4. Work dough into a ball. Press into an 8-inch disc. With a sharp knife, cut into 8 wedges. Place scones 3 inches apart on a lined baking sheet.
- 5. Glaze the scones with the tablespoon of the reserved liquid ingredients, Bake at 425 ° F for approximately 10 minutes or until golden brown. While scones are baking, prepare maple glaze.
