Preheat the oven to 425°(F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and
set aside.

nutmeg, mix well to combine.

Cut the butter into small cubes, then, using a pastry cutter, work the butter
into the dough until it resembles a coarse meal. The chunks of butter should be
about the size of peas.Ā
4
In a glass measuring cup whisk together the heavy cream, egg yolks, vanilla, and
maple extract (if using).Ā Ā
5
Pour the liquid mixture into the center of the flour mixture. Then add in the
walnuts and cranberries. Use a spatula to stir everything together until just
moistened. Don't worry if the dough looks dry/shaggy!Ā
6
Empty the loose dough out onto a clean, lightly floured work surface. Knead the
dough, dusting your hands/the dough with more flour if needed, until it comes
together, then shape it into an 8-inch disc.Ā
7
Cut the disc into 8 even wedges and carefully transfer them to the prepared
sheet, placing them 2-inches apart. Place in the refrigerator for 15 to 30
minutes.Ā
8
Remove the tray from the refrigerator and lightly brush each scone with egg
wash. Sprinkle generously with the sparkling sugar. if using.
9
Bake for 20 to 22 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow scones to cool for 10
minutes on the baking sheet, then drizzle with the glaze and serve warm!Ā
10
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water until well combined.
11
In a small bowl combine the confectioners' sugar, maple syrup, and milk and
whisk until well combined.Ā If the glaze appears too thin, add a small amount of
confectionersā sugar. It should be thick but pourable.
12
Drizzle the glaze over scones and serve!
