This was a popular choice in my coffee shop/deli. It uses a flavored non-dairy creamer instead of standard cream. Hazelnut was always the most popular but really any flavored creamer would work. Vanilla Caramel is another yummy choice. These are not as dry as some scone recipes can be, and they have tremendous flavor. White chocolate chips can be used instead of semi-sweet. This really is the best scone recipe ever! Remember, the key to a good scone is DON'T OVER MIX THE DOUGH!

How To Make creamer scones

Step 1

In a bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cream of tartar; cut in butter until crumbly.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk egg yolk and creamer; add to dry ingredients just until moistened. stir in baking chips (ie. chocolate chips.)
Step 3

Turn dough onto floured surface and knead 10 times. Don't over mix or knead or the dough will be tough.
Step 4

Divide dough in half. Pat each portion into a 7 inch circle. Cut into 8 wedges. Separate and place on a greased or parchment lined cookie sheet.
Step 5

** If you'd like, brush each scone with the left over egg white and sprinkle lightly with sugar.
Step 6

Bake in a 425 degree preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until lightly browned. If desired, drizzle with a glaze made from powdered sugar and liquid coffee creamer.
