Snickerdoodle Scones

January 25, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 25 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Yah we made it to Friday!  A few hours to go and the weekend officially starts!  Woohoo!!  I have to tell you the reason behind today’s recipe.  We ordered lunch the other day from Panera Bread and for some funky reason they always forget or mess up one of the girls lunches.  She doesn’t order anything off the menu, but they just always seem to forget.  Well since they forgot her lunch, she drove back to Panera Bread and got her lunch and said you should at least give me a free cookie!  Well, they did better than that, they gave her a box of pastries!!  Dam it!  I couldn’t resist, so I sliced off a piece of a scone, which I thought was apple and I bit into it and thought, this tastes so familiar and I asked one of my co-workers and they said it was a Snickerdoodle Scone.  Man, I love Snickerdoodles!  As I was driving home, all I could think about was that scone!!  So I skipped dinner and pulled out the Old Better Homes and Garden Cookbook and there were scones!!  So I changed up the recipe a lot to make it more healthy and bam a Snickerdoodle Scone was born!

Snickerdoodles Scones

Oh man, this scone is light and fluffy compared to most scones, which seem to crumble apart.  The flavor of snickerdoodles in every bite with the sweet sugar and cinnamon topping!  I love this scone!!  I haven’t made scones in over a year, I tried once, since then and I made a sloppy mess, so it never made it to my blog, but this scone is so easy and pretty impossible to mess up.

Snickerdoodles Scones


To lighten up this recipe I used Greek Yogurt instead of sour cream and egg substitute instead of an egg.  For the sugar I decided to use the NuNaturals Presweet Tagatose, but since it’s 92% the sweetness of regular sugar, so I should have added a little more to the recipe.  This scone is not sweet, however if you use regular sugar, the amount will be perfect.  For the butter, which takes  8 tablespoons, I used Brummel and Brown Margarine, which cuts off half the calories.  I was a little worried about using it, but it turned out great!!

Snickerdoodles Scones

I decided instead of making 8 massive scones, I would cut the recipe in half and make 16 scones, which I think is a perfect size.  After I kneaded the dough I divided the dough in half and placed it on my parchment paper, sprinkled it with cinnamon and sugar and then cut each circle of dough into 8 slices.  I’m pretty stoked that the recipe is only 98 calories a scone!  Not to shabby and I used whole wheat flour, so you get some nice fiber!!  You know we all could use some fiber!  🙂

Snickerdoodles Scones

If you’re a Snickerdoodle fan, I highly recommend this recipe.  You could use regular sugar, egg and butter if you would like, but you know me, I always try to find a healthy, lower calorie short-cut.  I do this because I have no self-control especially when it comes to baked goods.  The whole recipe takes about 15 minutes to make and 15 minutes to bake, perfect for a Saturday morning or Sunday brunch!!

Snickerdoodle Scones

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 30 minutes

Yield: 16 Scones

Serving Size: 1 Scone

Snickerdoodle Scones

A guilt-free, light and fluffy scone that tastes like Snickerdoodle Cookies.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt plain or vanilla
  • 1/4 cup egg substitute or 1 egg
  • 1 cup white whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar (I used Presweet Tagatose)
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (I used Brummel and Brown margarine)
  • For the Cinnamon and Sugar Topping:
  • 1/4 cup sugar (I used Presweet Tagatose)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together yogurt and egg; set a side
  3. In a large bowl mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cream of tartar, and cinnamon until combined. Add butter and mix until small pea size pieces, using a fork or your hands ( I used my hands).
  4. Fold in the yogurt mixture to flour mixture until just combined.
  5. Transfer dough to lightly floured work surface. Knead dough 6 to 8 times, until it just holds together. Divide dough in half and form each piece of dough into a circle, about an 1″ thick, and maybe 6 – 8″ wide.
  6. Transfer to prepared baking sheet.
  7. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar topping.
  8. With a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut each of the pieces of dough into 8 wedges; making 16 wedges.
  9. Bake 15 to 18 minutes until golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

It’s time for my annual pumpkin bath picture. I It’s time for my annual pumpkin bath picture. I don’t know what it is, but I love to give pumpkins a bath. Don’t they look cute bathing in the sunlight with bubbles around them? lol
🎃
There are two methods that I have used  in the past; the chlorine bath and the dish soap bath. This is what I have learned.
🎃
My favorite and only way I wash pumpkins now is using dish soap.  It gets rid of the sap and makes them clean. I soak my pumpkins for about 20 minutes. The pumpkins will last until December. Plus if you keep your pumpkins after the holidays it will decay and grow pumpkins the following year. Plus it’s safe for animals that may nibble on your pumpkin.
🎃
The chlorine bath method will make your pumpkins last possibly up to a year. They take very long to break down and I never got my pumpkins to seed themselves. Plus it is not safe for animals in my opinion. Though Clorox Bleach says it’s safe, they just taste salty.
🎃
The key to washing pumpkins is to make sure that you get the area around the stem dry. You don’t want water around the stem. This could make your pumpkin rot sooner. So after the bath, dry your pumpkins off very good. 
🎃
Did you get your pumpkins yet?
.
PS if you are in the Bay Area, I highly recommend going to @threenunnsfarm to get your pumpkins. They have a wide variety and the pumpkins and are .75 a pound. I bought all these pumpkins for $42.

Happy spooky Thursday! I added a few touches of Ha Happy spooky Thursday! I added a few touches of Halloween in my kitchen. I don’t do much Halloween decorations, but I just love to add it to the kitchen. Every time I go to the kitchen it makes me smile.
🦇
To add Fall or Halloween you don’t need to add a lot, just a few touches here and there. I will give a full tour in stories and tag a few items. Majority of the decor came from @krumpetshomedecor and the towels and bat banner from @theblessedpeach

Have the best day!

Hello Tuesday! Hope you are doing well. It’s sta Hello Tuesday! Hope you are doing well. It’s starting to feel like Fall here in Northern California. The mornings and evenings are feeling crisp. I can’t get over that we are in the middle of September. Where did the Summer go?
🎃
I’m sharing with you the corner of my living room where I store my pumpkins that I grew before I can take them outside. It’s been too warm for them and I want them to last through October. They have been doing well, as they have been here since the middle of August. 
🎃
I’m excited because this Saturday our local pumpkin patch will be opening. They have a huge variety of pumpkins and very inexpensive too. I’ll be stocking up. I just love this time of year.
🎃
Have a wonderful day!

Happy Monday! I want to thank those who have reach Happy Monday! I want to thank those who have reached out to me asking if I am okay. I am doing just fine. I’ve taken a little break from posting here because I have been busy on the dogs Instagram page. It’s hard to keep up on both. The dog page is so busy with birthdays, events and engagement. They have a busier social life than me. 
🩵
I am sharing with you the last view of my kitchen before it is filled with Halloween. I spent 6 hours yesterday cleaning all the cabinets, appliances, sink and floor. I even did the windows. It sure tired me out. I’m not as young as I used to be. But it is so sparkly clean. I did put up my Halloween and I can’t wait to share with you. The dining room is the next room to conquer.
🩵
Have a wonderful day!!

Hi, it’s me Samuel!! I am taking over mamas page Hi, it’s me Samuel!! I am taking over mamas page today because I got the best gift in the whole world and it even came in the mail on my birthday. How did @downlitebedding know? They are so good!
🐾
Downlite Bedding sent me the EnviroLoft® Down Alternative PrimaCool™ Cooling Comforter. Isn’t it beautiful? It’s so soft, cozy, hypoallergenic and it makes me so happy. 
🐾
The comforter is 400 thread count, it has moisture wicking and cooling technology to help regulate body temperature, which is perfect since I get warm in the summer with all my hair and I like to be cool when I’m sleeping. A big plus is the comforter is white, I hide very well in it. It’s hard to see me. So mama can’t catch me on her bed. 
🐾
The EnviroLoft® Down Alternative PrimaCool™ Cooling Comforter also has a Scotchguard stain release fabric and machine wash and dry. It’s truly an amazing comforter.
🐾
Mama let me do this takeover today because she knows that I love @downlitebedding as much as she does. She said she has never seen me get so excited as I do when we get Downlite Bedding and pillows in the mail. How can I not get excited? It’s like sleeping on a cloud!
🐾
Downlite Bedding was kind enough to give us a 20% discount:  DYGEN20 
🐾
Have a great day and happy napping!
🐾
❤️Samuel

Happy Thursday! Here is a view of my garden that I Happy Thursday! Here is a view of my garden that I took a couple weeks ago. My garden really overgrew this season. I need to do some major work in it, but with the heat, it’s just unbearable to be out there too long.
🌼
I had a lot of zinnias self-seed this season which is cool, but they kind of took over. They crowded out some plants, so I need to get in there and pull some out. Plus being so crowded, they got powdery mildew. Yuck!
🌼
I’m thinking for the Fall making this area a little harvest pumpkin area. We will see. I have grand ideas in my head, but I don’t always follow through. lol
🌼
How your garden growing? I lost all my potted plants from the heat. 😩

Hello Monday! This weekend I made a little charcut Hello Monday! This weekend I made a little charcuterie setup for my husband and I. This is something that I just love to do. I could just eat this type of meal all day long. 

I am sharing the “All White Collection” from @bzaar_wholesale. Each piece to the collection is so elegant and can be used all year round and would be gorgeous around the holidays.

The tray is made of marble with beautiful gold handles. The cheese knives are gold with solid marble handles and compliments the tray perfectly.

I used the marble flower shaped bowl for putting chocolates, but would be so stunning to use on your coffee table, side table and more.

The cake stand is has a marble base with Mother of Pearl edging and has a glass lid to go over the top. I will be putting my cakes and cookies on it in the future, but for now I used it to place my bruschetta.

@bzaar_wholesale has amazing products for your home, great pricing and global shipping. The link is in my bio.

Do you like making charcuterie boards? What do you add to yours?

Hello, hello! It may be 100 degrees outside, but I Hello, hello! It may be 100 degrees outside, but I can’t resist putting out some Fall. Especially when you get new decor from @12timbers.  You would laugh if you came into my living-room. Half my room is Fall, the other half is still coastal blues. lol I’ll eventually change it all out.
🍂
Let’s talk the art work. Isn’t it stunning? My husband never says anything about my decor, but he keeps talking about how much he likes the framed art from 12 Timbers. I agree, it’s so beautiful. It reminds me of when I lived back east and we would go to Letchworth Park in NY. The colors are stunning and goes perfectly with the burnt orange color that I’m using this season.
🍂
I just adore the wooden cut out pumpkins from @12Timbers. When I look at them they make me smile. The orange wooden leaf is the perfect piece to bring everything together. This gets me so excited for Fall decorating. Now to finish the rest of the living room.
🍂
12 Timbers is so kind to give me a discount code. It’s good until Saturday at midnight. The code is PBANDP15.
🍂
Have the most beautiful day!

Look at this friends! It’s my first Fall vignett Look at this friends! It’s my first Fall vignette. Notice anything that seems a tad early? It’s my first pumpkin from my garden. Can you believe it? They started to grow early this season so it’s time to start picking. Unfortunately the massive one I showed you a couple weeks ago didn’t make it. It collapsed in the middle. That makes me sad, but at least I have more pumpkins growing.
🎃
I really had fun bringing out some Fall decor. Fall is not my favorite season, as I love Spring and Summer, but Fall is my favorite to decorate for.
🎃
I wanted to share with you my new reversible blocks from @krumpetshomedecor. Aren’t they cute. They would look so pretty on a shelf. The one side says Fall and the other side says Boo! The two wooden pumpkins are also from Krumpets Home Decor.
🎃
The Fall blocks are the Krumpets Home Decor deal of the week. Plus you get an additional 10% off with code: PBANDP. Link in my bio.

Hello Tuesday! One of my favorite summer drinks is Hello Tuesday! One of my favorite summer drinks is a nice cold glass of lemonade. I like it a tad sour over sweet. It gives you the zippys in your mouth. I do love a good homemade lemonade, but once in awhile I like to cheat and just get my favorite store brand and add some freshly cut lemons and a few sprigs of mint. It then looks homemade when it’s not.
🍋
This is my outdoor dining area. I put the tablecloth over the table and have kept it like that all summer. I love my table, but being black, it’s extremely hot when you touch it. Plus it has water spots from last year which is annoying. Not sure how to get rid of them? 
🍋
What is your favorite summer drink? Have a wonderful day!
