Mango Scones
I just can't pass up a mango, and they sure have been plentiful in the supermarkets these days.
This recipe calls for brushing the dough with egg white and sugar, which after baking, gives a nice crunch and sweetness to the top of the scones.
Hot out of the oven, these scones are perfect with a pat of butter. For the leftovers, I split the scones, buttered and grilled them and topped them with Tropical Trio Jam - a combination of mango, passionfruit, and pineapple. Scrumptious!
