Spiced Pineapple Scones - Easy Recipes

Ingredients

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/3 cup granulated sugar
• 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple (packed in juice)
• 3/4 cup butter or margarine
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• Light cream or milk
• 3 tablespoons chopped macadamia nuts or almonds
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar

Directions

1. In a large mixing bowl stir together flour, the 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter or margarine until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well in the center. Stir in undrained pineapple just until dry ingredients are moistened (dough will be sticky).
2. On a lightly floured surface, knead dough gently 10 to 12 strokes. Roll dough 1/4 inch thick. Cut dough with a floured 2 1/2 inch biscuit cutter. Transfer scones to an ungreased baking sheet. Brush tops with light cream or milk.
3. For topping, stir together nuts, the 1 tablespoon sugar and cinnamon. Spread about 1 teaspoon of the topping over each scone. Bake at 425 degrees F for about 15 minutes or until golden brown.
4. Serve warm.
