How to Make Mimi's Cornmeal Scones
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, using a pastry blender or your fingers, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in 3/4 cup buttermilk until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
- Lightly flour a clean surface and turn the dough out onto it. Gently knead 8-10 times.
- Pat or roll the dough into a 7-inch circle. Transfer to an ungreased baking sheet sprinkled with cornmeal.
- Cut the circle into 8 wedges, cutting about halfway through to the center.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Remove from the baking sheet immediately and let cool slightly before serving warm.
