The combination of hazelnut and maple is really delicious, and in this scone, there’s a perfect balance of the two.
The scones themselves have a fantastic nutty flavour and light, crunchy texture and aren’t very sweet….they could easily be served as is with a soup or used in a sandwich.
The sweetness comes from the maple syrup glaze which, though made with confectioners’ sugar (my least favourite type of glaze), is saved from being cloyingly sweet by the addition of melted butter and a pinch of kosher salt. Even applied with a rather heavy hand, there’s too much glaze for the 12 scones – a half recipe would be enough.
A new family favourite.
