Jennifer Garner is a sweet little angel from heaven and I adore her. I also, perhaps unsurprisingly, adore her #PretendCookingShow. So when I saw that one of her latest videos from that series was getting a fair bit of attention online, I had to learn more.
The actress and now (sort of) cooking show host, recently took to Instagram to share a recipe for biscones with her followers. The recipe comes from The Back in the Day Bakery Cookbook – written by Back in the Day Bakery, who apparently love to pump out a biscone.
What are biscones, you ask? Well, friends. They’re an ingenious combination of scones and biscuits – blending the delicious qualities of both of those family favourites.
So, what’s this easy biscuit slash scone recipe?
Check out Jennifer Garner’s Instagram post below for the full recipe below:
We’ve gone ahead and Aussie-fied the details of it for you below:
What you’ll need:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups cake flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 Tbsp baking powder
- Salt
- 1/4 tsp ground cardamom (Garner used cinnamon)
- 1/2 lbs (about 230 grams or 2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2 in pieces
- 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
- Add-ins: Garner used 1/2 cup chocolate chips, and wrote “you can also use 1/2 cup fresh/frozen blueberries or whatever you like”.
Directions:
Preheat oven to 190C.
The rest of the recipe listed above should be super easy to follow along at home. Let us know if you give it a go and whether or not you enjoy it!
