Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup, plus
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon almond flavoring

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a large bowl to blend. Cut butter into small chunks and mix until mixture becomes crumbly.
  3. Stir milk, maple syrup, and almond in a small bowl to blend. Gradually add wet mixture to dry mixture, stirring just until dough forms a ball.
  4. Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface. Knead dough a few times, but don't overwork it or the scones will be too dense. Roll it out to 1/2-inch thickness and cut into triangular wedges. Transfer wedges to an ungreased baking sheet.
  5. OPTIONAL: beat one egg and brush lightly over scones to create a glaze.
  6. Bake scones until golden, about 20 minutes. Transfer to rack to cool.
