These scones are a nod to the cozy mornings at Nora's 100-year-old home, where simplicity and warmth blend into the setting perfectly.
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In another bowl, whisk cream, egg, and vanilla.
Combine wet and dry ingredients, mix until just combined.
Turn dough onto a floured surface, knead briefly, then pat into a circle.
Cut into 8 wedges, bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet for 15-20 minutes.
