ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar
¹⁄₂ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
¹⁄₂ teaspoon ground ginger
¹⁄₂ teaspoon ground cloves
¹⁄₄ teaspoon ground cardamom
5 tablespoons cold butter, diced in 1/4-inch pieces
¹⁄₄ cup milk
2 large eggs, lightly beaten

directions

Preheat oven to 450°F In the work bowl of a food processor, combine flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, cloves and cardamom. Pulse processor until combined.
Add butter and process in 1-second pulses until it resembles coarse meal, about 8-10 pulses.
In a large bowl, whisk together milk and eggs. Add flour-butter mixture and stir until combined. It should be fairly moist; if it's dry, crumbly, or there is still flour in the bowl, add cold water by 1/2 tablespoon increments until it all comes together.
Flour a surface lightly and turn out dough. Shape into a 1"-thick disc for regular sized scones; divide in half and make each half into a 1"-thick disc for mini scones. Cut disc(s) into 8 wedges.
Line a baking sheet with parchment or silicon liner. Arrange scones on sheet and bake in preheated oven 15-17 minutes until light golden-brown.

I'm a 48 y/o gay Jewish man in the suburbs immediately north of New York City. I'm a general internist, practicing and teaching at a medical college north of NYC. I also earned a Masters in Public Health degree in 2013. After a Walt Disney World trip in Dec 2006 where I had to rent an electric scooter because I couldn't manage the walking, I decided to have gastric bypass surgery, which was done Feb 28, 2007. I lost 160 lbs (though I've gained back about 60 of that since). I can't eat as much as I used to, so I want every bite to be extra good!
