Cooking Instructions

40 minutes
  1. 1

    Adjust oven rack to MEDIUM position and preheat to 350°F convection (375 conventional). Prepare a baking dish by lining it with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    In a food processor combine flour, sugar, poppy seeds, baking powder, and salt, and pulse to combine. Add butter and pulse until the mixture resembles a coarse meal.

  3. 3

    In a separate bowl, combine egg, lemon juice and zest, and milk, and whisk to combine. Pour wet ingredients over dry ingredients and pulse until a dough forms, but take care to not over-mix.

  4. 4

    On a lightly floured surface, pat dough into a 10- by 6 1/2-inch circle and cut into triangular scones.

  5. 5

    Place scones on prepared baking dish and bake for 18 minutes, or until scones have browned.

  6. 6

    Optional lemon glaze: while scones are baking, combine 1/3 cup confectioners sugar and a couple of tablespoons of fresh lemon juice until the desired consistency is reached; brush glaze on scones while still hot. Let cool and serve.
