Scones with Chocolate Chip, Flaxseed Meal, Poppy Seeds

You can make these scones 45 minutes before you leave for work and share with your co-workers.  

 

This recipe contains:

6 oz organic Flour Shifted with 2 tsp baking powder, 1/4 tsp kosher salt.  Shift well.  

Add and mix 4 oz organic sugar,

1 Tbsp Poppy Seeds,

1 Tbsp ground Flaxseed Meal.  

Preheat oven to 425'F.   

Add 4 oz Creme de Fraiche, 1/4 C organic milk plus some more, and organic dark chocolate chips.  

Gently - Blend well with spatula.    Then, add handful of organic dark chocolate chips or chopped dark European chocolate pistoles.

The dough is softer than the cookie dough.   If too moist, add 1+ tablespoon of flour. 

Transfer the dough to the baking pan lined with parchment paper. 

Form the dough into disc. 

Apply egg wash - 1 egg yolk and 1 tsp milk. 

Baking time and temperature depends on your oven's BTU.  I am using an electric countertop convection oven.  However, it seems this unit's convection is questionable.  But check at 20 min. Then, lower the temperature to 375'F and bake 12+ more minutes.  Bake till the tester comes out quite dry. 

The final scone should be moist like cake and beautifully browned at the top. 

 The crumbs are very tender

Cilantro Nectarine Yogurt Ice Cream

Is it crazy or what? I saw this Lemon Yogurt Ice Cream posting in the Yummly.  I looked in my refrigerator and thought - Why not?  and I tried it.  It's turned out refreshing and tasty without the heavy cream.   You might say, it's more like a smoothie, but to each its own.
Handful of cleaned Organic Cilantro - stems and leaf and all, except some at the bottom of the stems.
1 C Organic Yogurt
Some Ice - 1 C
1 home grown peach
1/4 Water
Process in your favorite blender.  Mine is NutriBullet Pro.

Don't forget to remove the ring and clean under.  Or you will be beating some extra !#$%  that you don't want.

Scones with Chocolate Chip, Flaxseed Meal, Poppy Seeds, and Organic Kale(powder)

This scone's crumbs turned out like cake.   Some people like scones that are like dry biscuit/a day old bread.   But unless I over bake it - sometimes I do, this ones should be moist and tender.   

Ingredients:

6 oz organic Flour Shifted with 2 tsp baking powder, 1/4 tsp kosher salt.  Shift well.  
Add and mix 4 oz organic sugar, 
1 Tbsp Organic Kale Powder, 
1 Tbsp Poppy Seeds, 
1 Tbsp ground Flaxseed Meal.  
Preheat oven to 425'F.   

Add 4 oz sour cream, 1/4 C organic milk and gently - mix well.  Then, add organic dark chocolate chips.   The dough should be quite soft but holds its shape - not runny.   If the dough is too moist, add 1 tablespoon of flour. 

Transfer the dough to the baking pan lined with parchment paper. 

Form the dough into a round disc. 

Apply egg wash - 1 egg yolk and 1 tsp milk.  

Depending on the oven you have - I am baking it in the countertop electric convection oven.  Check at 20 min. And change the temperature to 375'F and bake 12 minutes more or till the tester come out quite dry. 

The final scone should be moist like cake and beautifully browned at the top.
