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!!

Snickerdoodles Scones

 

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.

Happy Thursday! Don’t you just love spring and E Happy Thursday! Don’t you just love spring and Easter? I’m sure going to miss styling with bunnies, eggs and carrots. It seems Easter is early this year. I have no clue how I will decorate after Easter? I may just keep my decor up past the holiday?
🐇
I’m sharing with you my new centerpiece on my dining room table. It has a peach theme to match with my carrot cart. The beautiful white trays are from my friends at @feltcreativehome. I staggered the smaller tray onto the big tray by putting some candles under it. I think it looks pretty cool this way. You will be seeing these trays again as they are the perfect size for styling my decor. The trays come in a set of two. You can find them on Amazon under Felt Creative Home.
🐇
The tea towel is from my friend Alicia @theblessedpeach. The beautiful wooden bunny is from my friend Abby @ittybittycottage. The ceramic bunnies, candy and glass jars are from Target.
🐇
Do you have any plans for Easter?

The candles are from my friends @goldhillcandleco. They are hand poured, 100% soy and have a wooden wick. They smell so fresh and clean. These two candles are from the March subscription box. I highly recommend.

Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t k Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t know it in California. We are still getting rain and it’s in the mid 50’s. We should be in the 70’s by now. I wonder what the summer temps will be like this year?
🌺
Even though it may not feel like Spring,  there is no reason why we can’t start prepping for it. It’s going to be time soon to plant flowers, add a floral wreath to the front door and of course a welcome mat to invite everyone to your home. 
🌺
I wanted to share with you my new welcome mat that I got from @cocomatsnmore. They just had their Spring release and oh my gosh so many cute ones. I love there welcome mats. They are thick, bright colors and fast shipping. I absolutely love the flowers and the saying “Live Life in Full Bloom”. It’s so very true.
🌺
What are you most looking forward to this Spring?

I did have a very hard time taking my sink tray off the counter. I’ve had the tray there for years, so I thought I would change it up. Don’t be surprised if the sink tray makes its way back. 😂 I may add some herbs to my window sill for some fresh green color.

My husband and I are not fancy when it comes to eating dinner. Since it’s just the two of us, we never use the dining room table, but always eat at the kitchen counter.
🥕
There is no reason why we can’t eat fancy at the kitchen counter. I am using my new placemats that I got from @vmathome. They are thick, water, stain resistant and can handle heat up to 350F degrees. I love the color and style of the placemats. They have a wide variety of styles and colors, along with matching table runners.
🥕
I styled my table with bright spring colors that I was inspired by carrots. I still have bunnies on the brain. lol I had fun with this place setting, it’s so nice to have dinner with a little style then having it on a plain plate and paper napkins.
🥕
Have a wonderful weekend!!
