Cream Scones with Strawberry Preservatives (See Strawberry Preservatives w/o added sugar)

Paula D's Cream Scones w/ Strawberry Preserves 
(I found my own preserve recipe w/o added sugar)

What you need:

  1. Strawberry Preserves (See Strawberry Preserves recipe)
  2. 2 cups cake flour
  3. 2 tsp baking powder
  4. A PINCH of salt (more if you want - this is for a low sodium household)
  5. 1 egg (egg white and yolk separated)
  6. Lemon zest (so 1 lemon would work)
  7. Light cream (1 cup or so - the lady on Paula D's show didn't measure - which I loved)
  8. Butter (Also not measured, but it looked like a stick of butter, cut up in 8 squares)

Directions (As I wrote them - I followed along with the TV)

  1. In a mixing bowl add 2 cups cake flour, 2 tsp baking powder, a pinch of salt
  2. Separate an egg (egg white and egg yolk - the egg white is beaten and brushed on the scones before they are placed in the oven)
  3. Mix dry ingredients
  4. Add egg yolk to mixing bowl
  5. Add light cream to mixing bowl
  6. Add cut up COLD butter 
  7. Mix ingredients
  8. Lay down some powder and add the mixture, patting down into a circle
  9. Cut mixture in continued halfs until cut up like a pizzza
  10. Beat your egg white and brush on the scones
  11. Add sugar (optional - we will be doing so)
  12. Bake on 450 for 10 minutes
  13. Spread on your preserves
  14. ENJOY!!!
