Scone Bake with maple bourbon

Method

1. Gather and prep everything first: all-purpose flour, instant yeast, kosher salt and set within reach of the stove.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the fennel bulb in a little butter until translucent.
3. Add the scone and let it smoked-paprika, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Stir in the warm water along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Pour in the white wine, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
6. Off the heat, brighten it up with a squeeze of lemon and a final crack of pepper.
7. Serve warm, ideally with something to soak up the sauce.
