Had ur brekkie yet?? i think ever since i've been back on this pill.. the only kinda food that i feel like eating in the morning is fruits.. fruits and fruits.. dont know why.. just dont feel like eating anything heavy..
I baked these scones yesterday thinking that this morning i would be munching on these scones.. that wasnt the case eventho i am a super big fan of scones.. dont get me wrong yah.. this is one scone that u shud and u will be wanting to bake.. the aroma.. the flaky texture of this scone was ohhh so purrfectttt.. plus no way hozay u can get scones with peach filling in ur bakery! hehe
Ok ok.. there is actually a factual story behind these scones.. do u remember we were in Cameron Highlands early this month? well if u were to go back to that post.. u will notice that we had tea and scones at The Lakehouse.. honestly? we were pretty dissapointed with it.. as it was already past 3pm.. we thought it would be nice to stop over at The Lakehouse to hv some kind of high tea.. when u think of high tea.. u will be thinking of petite fours.. chocolates and flaky buttery warm scones.. we got there.. ordered our coffee/tea and when it finally arrived.. i noticed their scones didnt even look like scones.. more like a round biscuit that doesnt even resemble scones.. didnt wanna think bad and decided to try it and oh boy were we disappointed.. :o(
So of cos its natural that when i saw this pic.. i thought of our time at The Lakehouse.. i really hope that they will do something abt it cos my super duper hubs has talked to their management abt it - he figured it better to let them know the truth what he thinks..(and they have replied that they will this week start a complete revamp...)
So ok.. heres the recipe to these scones.. i've kept one piece aside for me to munch later..one for Sonia's lunch box.. one for Hairi and the rest goes to hubs and his work mates!
... scroll down for the method and if u wanna see the step by step pics.. u can go to Joy the Baker! and oh bef i forgot.. i added fresh blueberries too!
Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 200 degrees C. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Cut in shortening and butter until mixture resembles coarse meal. Use your hands to break the fat cutes into the dry ingredients. Some of the fat bits will be the size of peas and some fat bits will be the size of oat flakes. In another bowl, combine egg, milk, and vanilla, and beat lightly with a fork. Add the liquid to flour mixture all at once, stirring enough to make a soft dough.
Turn out onto a floured board and knead about 15 times. If the butter has warmed too much in the making of the dough, shape the batter into a dish, wrap in plastic wrap, and let rest in the fridge for 15 minutes. If the butter is still cool, shape the dough into a disk and, on a well floured surface, roll dough to a little less than 1/2-inch thickness. My dough was about 12-inches long and 10-inches tall. The dough will be rolled just thinner than a biscuit dough that you would cut biscuits from.
Brush half of the rolled out dough with buttermilk. Arrange peach slices, in a single layer, across the buttermilk moistened dough. Sprinkle with half of the cinnamon sugar mixture. Carefully fold the empty side of dough over the peach sliced layer. Press gently together. Add a bit of flour to your hands and press the edges of the dough in, creating more of a rectangle shape than a half circle shape. Using a floured knife, slice dough into eight even pieces.
Place dough on prepared baking sheets, leaving about 1 1/2-inches of room around each scone for spread while baking. If dough has warmed, and feels mushy, place in the fridge for 20 minutes to rechill. Remove from the fridge. Brush each scone top with buttermilk, and sprinkle with remaining cinnamon sugar.

Rima,
Last few weeks masa I malas nak bake, I teringin nak makan chocolate cheesecake. Pegi beli dkt bakery sepotong kecik $6 and I was very2 dissapointed also :( I can make a more delicious whole cheesecake for less than $20 (cheh puji diri sendiri) Mmg betul lah nak puas hati kena buat sendiri kan hehehez.
As always luv all ur photos here....I managed to catch up with all the rest of ur past entries and melelehkan air liur at the same time :ppppp
Such a beautiful delicious golden brown scones you have made here!! Wish I can have a piece now for my breakfast. I loves scones very much. Got to try this one out.
I had roti canai telur this morning for brekkie tapi nampak scones nih dah lapar balik lah!! terus buat oat kat pantry nih..terguda sungguh!!

If we bake.. We tend to do that.. If sedap ku kata sedap.. If tak sedap.. Ku kata tak sedap.. No play play.. If go Paris.. Semua yg ku rasa sedap.. Apasal ahhhh hahaha
I baru balik Dari rumah u.. Lama u menghilang ehhh.. Ade whoopie pie lagi which baru ku teringat.. Hairi asked me to bake him that.. Mama dia getting old.. Tak habis nak try new recipe sampai lupa pasal whoopie pie.. Must do red velvet or pumpkin whoopie pie pulak
Mel
I had 1/2 of it n I loved it! Bake it cos really.. U don't need to hv it with butter or jam.. It's good on its own..

Prata telur.. Sedap! I had it last week makan with curry ikan..
Makan oat pun ok jugak.. Sambil kacau Sambil ingat kan keharuman cinnamon sugar kena bakar hehehe

my super duper luvly bff pun klu feel disappointed with food dia akan go n tell d manager. i pulak yg sometimes ish takpe la...takpela.. tak pyh bising2lah..., but actually memang patutlah bagitau kan cos we pay for it.n also for the people to do better thing.
Rima....cobbler cobbler mend my shoes,mend my shoes at half past two...wahh..mengancam betul your scones..sedih ni...dah tak buleh makan manis2 lagi dah,pastry semua kena lupa buat sementara waktu..baru ni g buat medical check-up,adalah find out smthing yg tak sepatutnya kan...so the doctor said" madamme nur,if you go inside a bakery,you're committing suicide..."takut knur dgr tu..so,rehat seketika,bila semua dah ok nanti,pastry shop will be seeing me everyday..haha..TQ Rima...
Enaknyaaaa Kak Rima, pingin buat tapi sayang...di tempatku tak ada fresh peach, hiks hiks cuman bisa membayangkan rasanya...
Your scone looks nice. I should follow your recipe and try to bake one... :)
Hi Rima
I think biasanya kalau orang putih yg komplen atau tell the truth abt something yg tidak puas hati, dimana2 juga akan ambik tindakan secepat mungkin.. this is a fact.. AND I think it's good if all of us can do the same. The only diff. is bila budak muda yg buat such complaint, budak muda nih will be brushed aside.
Having said that, I nak citer pasal my doter. Dia beli bun tuna tapi takde tunanya so dia komplen kat cust. svs. Dua hari kemudian, pihak 'roti' hantar a bagful of goodies..to replace the bun without its proper filling.
Sekian n have a nice day :-)
Kak rima, I think we might be on the same magic pill. I still eat tho Sebab I takot rebound when I stop.. So my weight loss is quite slow even tho I exercise at least 3 times a week..
eh termengumpat lak pasal blog awak..

when we were at concorde hubs told one of the upper ppl that we are heading to lakehouse.. dia pi called there and informed them that we are coming.. lepas our tea break tu when my hubs nak bayar.. meka kata its on the house.. my hubs kata.. no no its ok.. i want to pay.. i didnt know that the whole thing is actually on the house and asked hubs why he paid for the meal.. my hubs kata.. if we tak bayar.. susah lah dia nak complain hehe but now that they know and told hubs that they will do a revamp.. we are happy lah kan.. good food.. good service selalu buat orang datang lagi dan lagi dan lagi :o)
Lahhh KNur.. what telah the happened.. i hope u are doing alright.. jaga makan.. tak gi bakery also tak per.. buat seketika lah kan but how to resist when ur in Paris huhu.. akan ku terjah tak lama lagi bakery bakery itew hehe.. take care!!

Adele

CS
sadly.. that is the truth.. apasal ahhh?? kalau kita yg complain siap kita dapat that look "complain konon!" .. if orang putih complain semua jalan .. my hubs complain dgn orang kulit putih jugak but we know him lah kan.. hes in charge of case del rio yg kat melaka and now he kat lakehouse cos byk yg harus direvamp.. tu yg my hubs told him abt what he thinks.. i wouldnt call it complain lah.. even kat casa del rio or concorde.. my hubs selalu kasi opinion.. his two cents worth lah kann
Hmm dapat roti perrr?? biasa lah kan.. kira roti pemberian buat tutup mulut kaedah nye :o)
Rosemardiana
