How to Make Banana Nut Chocolate Chip Scones
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup buttermilk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 2 large egg whites. Mash 1 ripe banana and stir into the wet ingredients.
- Gently add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Stir in 1 cup chocolate chips.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat into a 9-inch circle.
- Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet.
- Sprinkle ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans and ¼ cup packed light brown sugar evenly over the dough. Gently press the nuts and sugar into the dough.
- Cut the dough into 12 equal wedges.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
