A Scone for one

A SCONE FOR ONE RECIPE

• 1/3 cup flour
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 Tbsp sugar
• 1 Tbsp cold butter, cut into small cubes
• 2 1/2 Tbsp milk (I used nonfat)
• 2 Tbsp mix-in of choice (this particular scone is cranberry walnut!)

Preheat oven to 450.  It’s good to note that I have a small food processor (I think a 1-cup capacity?) which worked perfectly for this, but you can certainly use your fingers to break up the butter into the flour. 

In a food processor combine the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.  Pulse the butter into the dry ingredients until it breaks up and resembles crumbs.  Next add in the mix-ins and milk and pulse until the dough pulls away from the side of the mixer, which should only take a moment.  Carefully pull the dough away from the blade and shape into a circle, patting it to about 1/2 inch in thickness.  Bake at 450 on a Silpat or a piece of parchment paper for 8-10 minutes until golden brown.  Let cool slightly before digging in!
