Peanut Butter and Jelly Scones

By Stacey Freeman 1 Comment

peanut-butter-and-jelly-scones-06My husband gives me the hardest time about my peanut butter consumption. As I began making these peanut butter and jelly scones, he moaned about the fact that I’m constantly making peanut butter recipes (I’m not).

I think he just likes to give me a hard time because I do, in fact, really like peanut butter. To be fair, I did make one peanut recipe before (peanut chocolate chip bars), but it’s not like all my recipes involve peanut butter.

peanut-butter-and-jelly-scones-01The main reason I wanted to try making peanut butter and jelly scones is because I haven’t made scones in a really long time (since these yummy spiced pumpkin ones).

peanut-butter-and-jelly-scones-02The thing I like best about homemade scones is that they are not nearly as dry as ones I’ve had from bakeries–at least the ones I make. Perhaps it’s because I always add some sort of filling to my scones, so it gives them extra moisture.

peanut-butter-and-jelly-scones-03I adapted this recipe for peanut butter chocolate chip scones to come up with my recipe. I made several changes, including adding extra peanut butter and removing the chocolate chips.

peanut-butter-and-jelly-scones-04The biggest challenge with my recipe was getting the dough to come together, as it was pretty crumbly. I just kept adding whole milk until it would hold together.

peanut-butter-and-jelly-scones-07Otherwise, the recipe is pretty simple and these are really delicious! They taste just like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, but so much better. They aren’t overly sweet, but the peanut butter glaze adds just the right touch of sweetness. They are moist and yummy—a perfect morning treat with your coffee or tea.

peanut-butter-and-jelly-scones-05I brought the leftovers to work, and my coworkers raved–with full mouths–how much they loved these peanut butter and jelly scones. I hope you’ll give them a try, and if you like this recipe, please pin and share with your friends!

Peanut Butter and Jelly Scones

Ingredients:

Scones
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
pinch of salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold (1 stick)
1 large egg
2/3 cup creamy peanut butter
2-3 tablespoons whole milk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Glaze
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup confectioners’ sugar
about 3 to 4 tablespoons whole milk

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400F. Line a baking sheet with a parchment; set aside.
  2. Scones – In a large bowl, add 2 cups flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and whisk to combine.
  3. Add the butter, and with a pastry cutter or two forks, cut the butter in. I break up the butter with the fork and once it’s mostly broken, I use my hands to knead it in. It will feel like semi-wet, cool sand. Set bowl aside.
  4. In a small bowl, add the egg, 2/3 cup peanut butter, vanilla, and whisk to combine until smooth.
  5. Pour wet mixture over dry, and fold until just combined with a soft-tipped spatula; don’t overmix or scones will be tough. If dough seems very crumbly or isn’t coming together, add 1 tablespoon of milk at a time, until moist enough to come together.
  6. Turn dough out onto a clean, lightly floured work surface and with lightly floured hands or a spatula, pat dough into a rectangle, about two inches high.
  7. Use a round cookie cutter, or the bottom of a round glass to cut out the scones. I used a standard drinking glass. The recipe made 8-9 scones using the bottom of a glass.
  8. Using a flat spatula or pie turner, transfer scones to prepared baking sheet spaced at least 2-inches apart.
  9. Bake for about 12 to 15 minutes, or until scones are very lightly golden and cooked through. They set up more as they cool; it’s critical not to overbake or scones will be dry. Because they’re baking in quite a hot oven, watch them closely starting after about 11 minutes to ensure the bottoms aren’t getting too browned.
  10. Allow scones to cool on baking tray for 1-2 minutes before removing and transferring to a rack to finish cooling. While the scones cool, make the glaze.
  11. Glaze – In a medium, microwave-safe bowl, add 1/2 cup peanut butter and heat for 30 seconds to soften.
  12. Add the confectioner’s sugar, 3-4 tablespoons milk, and whisk together until smooth. Depending on desired consistency, you may need to add more milk or sugar.
  13. Evenly drizzle the glaze over the scones before serving or frost them like a frosted sugar cookie. Enjoy!

What is your biggest insecurity? . For all of you What is your biggest insecurity? 
.
For all of you who have commented on my confidence, it will surprise you to know I’ve actually been insecure about my figure most of my life. I grew up in the era when straight, thin bodies were idolized, and I didn’t see my curvy shape in media. 
.
Although it might seem crazy to say, I actually thank @kimkardashian for making hourglass figures like mine cool again. I constantly see women on TikTok paying thousands of dollars to get the curves I’ve tried to hide most of my life. Seeing more diversity in body types in media and advertising has definitely helped me to feel more secure in my shape. 
.
Over the last couple of years, I’ve shifted the way I style my body too. I used to wear a lot of a-line dresses and fuller cuts. Now, I always try to show off my shape. I’m still self-conscious a lot of the time, but I’m working on it and I’m learning to love my shape a little more everyday.

MLK weekend vibes💙. It has been so warm in LA w MLK weekend vibes💙. It has been so warm in LA we spent all day at the beach yesterday. Today, we are taking in local parks and another gorgeous day. But, my heart is heavy with the state of our world. 
.
Today, as we celebrate an important figure in the fight for Black equality, I’m choosing not to share one of his famous quotes because that’s too easy. Simply sharing his words without considering or sharing my perspective about the current state of our country feels disingenuous at best.
.
I’ve struggled with how to talk about the insurrection because I still find it all so shocking. And the fact that I am shocked is a problem. That our country can be so divided that it’s difficult for me to even fathom how people could participate in this divisiveness.
.
The insurrection happened on my birthday, as I flew to Puerto Vallarta. Landing in Mexico and learning about what was happening felt surreal. I still can’t wrap my head around it, honestly.  What scares me the most is the hate. The idolizing of a white supremacist ideology is terrifying. It terrifies me for my children. For their safety. For their lives.
.
I understand that a lot of hate is spurred by fear, lack of understanding and discomfort. Today, I hope we can all think about how to be more open to thoughts and perspectives that our different than our own. Be more accepting of people who look different, who have different cultures and life experiences. Today, I hope we can all collectively try to confront every human interaction from a place of love and kindness. If we all spent a little more time considering the other person’s life or story, I think we’d have a lot more peace and happiness. #mlk #mlkday #mlkweekend
