Rhubarb Lemon Scones

Rhubarb is a perennial plant, easy to grow,
with low maintenance.
Packed with vitamins, minerals and
organic values.



Lemon and rhubarb make a great combination.











Ingredients:


1/2 cup sugar
2 1/2 cups flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
grated rind of a lemon.


1/2 cup unsalted cold butter

1 cup chopped rhubarb

1 egg
1/2 cup milk or buttermilk.
    1 tsp vanilla extract

    Preheat Oven to 375deg. F

    In a large bowl, whisk together the
     sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt.

    Cut in the butter until it resembles coarse crumbs.


    Stir in the lemon rind.




    I use this Ikea grater to grate



    add in the rhubarb

    In a small bowl,
    combine the egg, milk/ buttermilk
    and the vanilla.

    Combine the two bowls together.
    (The flour and egg mixture)



    Turn out on a floured surface,

     knead a few times and shape into a circle.
    Cut in 8 wedges.

    Place on a parchment lined baking sheet.
    (Optional) Brush the tops with milk.





    Bake 375 deg. F for 25 mins, or 
    just until they start to turn golden.



    Cool completely.

    Drizzle with lemon glaze.
    3/4 cup of icing sugar/confectionery sugar
    About 1/2 juice of a lemon.

    I place a small baggie over a glass
    and put the glaze in.



    Cut a small corner out of the bag
    and squeeze the glaze out onto the scones 


    Delicious!!

    Enjoy!
