Maple Pecan Scones

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375° fahrenheit, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together your flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
3. Use a cheese grater to grate your cold butter into the dry ingredients, use your hands to lightly mix the butter into the dry ingredients. Add in your pecans and toss lightly to mix.
4. In a medium bowl, combine the cream, egg, maple syrup and vanilla extract. Pour over the butter and dry ingredients and stir to combine. Trying to work the dough as little as possible, turn out onto a lightly floured surface and work into a ball. Flatten into an 8-9 inch disc and use a sharp knife to cut into 6-8 equal pieces
5. Arrange the pieces on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each one. Bake for 25-28 minutes, or until nice and golden brown. Allow to cool for at least 5-10 minutes before drizzling the icing over the top.
6. For the glaze, in a small bowl whisk together the powdered sugar, maple syrup, and salt. If you need to thicken the glaze add a few tablespoons of powdered sugar, if it’s too thick, add 1 tablespoon of additional maple syrup.
