Last week, I posted about the easy autumn pumpkin apple butter dip (which was tasty). In that picture, you may have noticed the delicious looking pastries accompanying the dip. So, today I wanted to share this super easy caramel pancake mix scones recipe with you.
Caramel Pancake Mix Scones Recipe
This pancake mix scones recipe can be adapted with 1-2 cups of other ingredients. Just substitute the caramel with an ingredient of your choosing. I want to try chocolate chip or blueberries some day as I think that would be delightful. Honestly, any other baking chips or pieces of fruit would probably be good. Since they are so easy to make, I’m sure we’ll make some variation of them again.
I will admit that my boyfriend and I selected caramel just because it seemed like a good idea to go with the apple butter pumpkin dip. However, we didn’t think about the possible big mess the caramel bits would create when they baked. So, here’s a personal tip if you make these with caramel: remove them from the pan asap or they will stick to the pan. Then, they will break apart as you remove them. Plus, they are even better when they are warm.
Caramel Pancake Mix Scones Recipe
Ingredients
- 3 1/4 cups pancake mix
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter cut into small pieces
- 1-2 cups caramel pieces or other add-in of your choice
- 1/2 cup whipping cream
- 1 egg
Instructions
- Heat oven to 425.
- Mix the pancake mix and sugar in a large bowl.
- Using a pastry blender, cut in the butter. The mixture should resemble coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the caramel pieces.
- In a separate bowl, beat together the whipping cream and egg with a whisk.
- Stir the two mixtures together with a wooden spoon and a dough should form.
- Sprinkle a work surface with extra pancake mix and place dough onto it. Knead the dough about 5-6 times.
- Divide the dough into 2 equal portions and shape into circles. Cut the circles into 6 wedges.
- Place the wedges onto a cookie sheet and bake for 11-15 minutes.
- Serve warm.
