Starbucks Date Scones | Date Scones Starbucks recipe
1-1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 cup bran
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter, unsalted, chilled
1 egg
2/3 cup buttermilk
2/3 cup chopped dates
Combine the all purpose flour, the whole wheat flour, the bran, baking powder, soda, salt, cinnamon and brown sugar.
Cut in the butter. (Or combine in a food processor, just until crumbly.)
Add the egg, buttermilk and dates; do not over mix. If the dough seems too sticky to work with, add a couple more tablespoons flour.
Shape the dough into a rectangle about 1" thick on a floured surface. Cut into 12 triangles.
Bake on an ungreased baking sheet in a preheated 350F degree oven about 25 minutes.
Cool on a rack.
Makes 12 scones
