How to Make Brown Sugar Banana Scones
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, 1/2 cup brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
- Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, vanilla extract, and egg whites.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients along with the mashed bananas. Stir gently until just combined. The dough will be slightly sticky.
- 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 with the chopped pecans and remaining 1 tablespoon of brown sugar.
- Using a sharp knife, cut the dough into 12 wedges, cutting about halfway through the scones.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown.
- Let cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving warm. Enjoy!
