   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   3               cups  Unbleached All-Purpose Flour -- (361g)
   1         tablespoon  baking powder
   1           teaspoon  salt
      1/2           cup  sugar -- (99g)
   1                cup  pecan meal -- Note, (82g)
      1/2           cup  chopped pecans -- (57g)
      1/2           cup  cinnamon sweet bits -- (85g) Note 2,
      1/2           cup  butter -- (8 Tbsp, 113g)
      3/4           cup  buttermilk -- (170g)
   2              large  eggs
   2          teaspoons  pure vanilla extract

These scones, rich with the flavor of pecans and studded with sweet, 
spicy cinnamon chips, are like that certain brand of potato chips, of 
which it's claimed "you can't eat just one."

Note: pecan meal. It adds the nutty, rich flavor of pecans without 
requiring you to toast, chop, and grind them yourself.

Note 2: A new favorite specialty ingredient of our test kitchen 
bakers, these little bits add pockets of melted cinnamon sugar 
goodness to every bite of your recipes.

PREP: 20 mins
BAKE: 12 to 34 mins
TOTAL: 32 mins
YIELD: fifteen 3 1/2" scones

Preheat the oven to 400F. Line (or lightly grease) a baking sheet 
with parchment paper.

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking 
powder, salt, sugar, pecan meal, pecans and cinnamon chips.

Cut in the butter or margarine until the mixture resembles coarse 
cornmeal, with a few larger chunks of butter still showing.

In a separate bowl, beat together the buttermilk, eggs and vanilla.

Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients, and stir to combine.

Scrape the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead it 
gently just until it holds together.

Pat it into a rectangle about 8" x 10", and cut the dough into 2" to 
3" diamonds or squares with a sharp knife.

Place the scones on an ungreased cookie sheet, and bake in a 
preheated 400F oven for 12 to 14 minutes, until they're golden brown. 
Remove them from the oven, and serve warm.

Store, well-wrapped, on the counter for 2 days, or freeze for up to a month.
