Scones
Preheat oven to 400ºF/200ºC and place a piece of parchment on a baking sheet.
In a large bowl, mix together flour, walnuts, sugar, baking powder, salt, and Watkins Organic Ground Cinnamon. Using a pastry cutter or your hands, cut in the butter until the mixture looks like small peas.
In a small bowl combine eggs, heavy cream, and Watkins All Natural Original Gourmet Baking Vanilla®. Pour into the dry ingredients. Using your hands, mix until the dough is just moistened. Turn onto a floured surface and shape into a 6-inch/15-cm circle. Place the dough on the parchment paper and score into 8 wedges, but keeping the scone together. Brush top of dough with 2 tbsp/30 mL of milk and bake in the oven until browned and cooked through, about 15 minutes.
Simple Glaze: Place the sugar in a medium bowl and slowly stir in the milk and Watkins All Natural Original Gourmet Baking Vanilla® Extract, a little at a time, until smooth.
Serve warm with butter.
