Apple Scones with Maple Glaze

Ingredients:

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Add the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, sugar, and salt to the bowl of a stand mixer. Mix to combine. Add the cold cubed butter and mix to combine until the mixture resembles damp sand.
3. Add the chopped apple and heavy cream (1 cup) and mix to combine until a dough forms.
4. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead with your hands until a ball forms. Press the dough into a circle that is about ¾-inch thick and cut into 8 wedges.
5. Place the wedges on the baking sheet and brush the tops with heavy cream. Bake for 13-15 minutes or until golden brown. Cool slightly while making the maple glaze.
6. To make the maple glaze, melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat and continue to heat until light brown in color.
7. Add the maple syrup and vanilla extract and whisk to combine. Add the powdered sugar and whisk to combine.
8. Slowly drizzle over the scones – pour SLOW to create a nice line pattern or it will come out in blobs. Use as much or as little as you like. Store an unused glaze in the fridge for up to a week.
9. Serve the scones warm and enjoy!
10. Any leftovers should be cooled completely and stored in an airtight container in the fridge. Warm in the microwave slightly before enjoying leftovers.
