White Chocolate Latte Macchiato Scones

There are few things more delicious and satisfying to eat than fresh, fluffy scones straight from the oven. White chocolate and latte macchiato make these light, buttery and fluffy scones especially tempting and satisfying. Serve them while still warm slathered with luxurious whipped mascarpone and fresh seasonal berries for an ultimate breakfast or over a cup of tea or coffee anytime you feel like treating yourself!

250 g White spelt flour
30 g Bourbon vanilla sugar (Dr. Oetker)
1 tbsp Baking powder
1 capsule Latte Macchiato (EXPRESSI from ALDI)
1/4 tsp Pink salt
90 g Cold kerrygold butter, diced
130 ml Whipping cream (plus more for the topping)
1 Medium egg
100 g White chocolate, chopped into chunks
Whipped mascarpone, to serve
Fresh strawberries, to serve

Line a large baking tray with parchment paper, set aside. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F.
In a large bowl add spelt flour, vanilla sugar, baking powder, latte macchiato and sea salt. Stir to combine.
Cut in cold butter and using a pastry cutter or your hands/fingers, rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. Add in cream and egg and stir until until mixture comes together (do not over mix). Add in white chocolate chunks and mix until evenly distributed.
Turn dough out onto a well-floured work surface and form into a round circle about 25cm in diameter. Transfer the circle of scone dough to the prepared baking sheet. Cut into 6-8 equal wedges, then separate wedges and arrange them evenly on the baking tray.
Brush the top of the scones with extra cream and bake in the preheated oven for 20-22 minutes until scones are nicely golden. Serve them with whipped mascarpone and strawberries.

Yvonne @ Fiction Books Reviews 30/4/21 07:17: Okay! so I thought that a good cheese scone was my favourite - but not any more, these look and sound amazing!!

Personally I would probably skip any fillings or toppings, other than a good slathering of real butter.

I might even leave them plain as they are and straight from the oven?

Thanks for sharing, I'm so pleased I never missed this recipe :)
