Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons lemon zest optional
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ⅓ cup unsalted butter cold, cut into pieces
- 2 eggs beaten
- ¾ cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 ¼ cups blueberries fresh or frozen
- heavy whipping cream to brush top of scones
- granulated sugar to sprinkle top of scones
Icing
- 3 tablespoon powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon heavy whipping cream
Instructions
Scones
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, lemon zest (if using), and salt in a bowl.
- Using a pastry cutter, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Combine eggs and heavy cream. Add egg mixture into well in flour mixture and mix until dough forms.
- Place dough on a flat surface and add some of the blueberries. Gently fold the dough to mix in the berries. Repeat with remaining berries handling the dough as little as possible.
- Pat or lightly roll dough into an 8-inch circle and cut into 8 wedges.
- Place wedges 1-inch apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Brush with heavy cream and sprinkle with additional sugar.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes or until golden. Remove scones from the baking sheet. Let cool and top with icing.
Icing
- Combine ingredients in a bowl.
- After scones are slightly cooled, place scones on a large plate and drizzle with icing.
Notes
- Keep butter chilled until ready to use.
- If blueberries are frozen, do not defrost first.
- Frozen blueberries may discolor the dough.
- Uncooked scones can be frozen and baked individually for 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned.
