I wanted to make something special for my September birthday breakfast, so I came up with this recipe. Hope you enjoy them. I had them with butter and the Peach Lavender Jam that I had made earlier this season.
Ingredients:
2 c. flour
1 c. cornmeal
1/ 3 cup sugar
2 tsp b. powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1/ 4 tsp freshly ground nutmeg
5 T. unsalted butter
grated rind of one lemon
1 cup dried cranberries
1/ 5 c. buttermilk
1 egg
1.5 tsp vanilla
2 T. heavy cream
Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl. Blend in the butter until it forms a coarse meal. Toss in the lemon rind and cranberries.
Mix the wet ingredients in a cup, add to the dry and blend until all ingredients come together. Shape into 3 balls. Fatten a bit and cut each into four parts. You will have 12 pieces. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet, 2 inches apart.
Dust with sugar and bake at 450 for 15 – 18 minutes, or as needed in your oven.
