Suggestions

These raspberry thumbprint wholewheat scones with macadamia nuts are a delicious and healthy treat. They are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or even dessert. The scones are made with a combination of all-purpose and whole-wheat flour, giving them a nutty flavor and a slightly denser texture. The rolled oats add a nice chewiness, while the brown sugar provides a deep, caramel-like sweetness. The double-acting baking powder ensures that the scones rise evenly and have a light and fluffy texture. The ground cinnamon and allspice add a lovely warmth to the scones, while the cranberries and macadamia nuts provide a nice contrast in texture and a burst of flavor. The raspberry jam in the center adds a lovely sweetness and a pop of color. The scones are then drizzled with a simple glaze made from powdered sugar and milk, adding a touch of elegance. These scones are not only delicious but also nutritious, providing a good source of protein, fat, and carbohydrates. They are also a good source of manganese, selenium, and vitamin B1. So, if you're looking for a tasty and healthy treat, be sure to give these raspberry thumbprint wholewheat scones with macadamia nuts a try!

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 F
