Ingredients
Scones
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup pulverized unsweetened freeze-dried strawberries
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter cut into ¼" squares, cold
- 1 ¼ cups sliced strawberries fresh
- 1 egg beaten
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 6 tablespoons milk
- 1 egg for egg wash
- 2 tablespoons turbinado sugar for sprinkling
Strawberry Glaze
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened freeze-dried strawberries pulverized
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and set aside.
- Make the scone dough
- Pulverize a 1.2 oz. bag of freeze dried strawberries in the food processor. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, pulverized freeze-dried strawberries, sugar, baking powder and salt.
- With a dough blender, cut the cold, sliced butter into the flour mixture. Once this is complete, the mix will be coarse crumbles and look a little like wet sand.
- Gently fold the berries into the dough.
- In a smaller bowl, combine the beaten egg, vanilla and milk, then mix well.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined using a rubber spatula. It will be crumbly.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, and gently knead the dough into a ball, being careful of the berries.
- Press the dough into a 13" x 4 ½" rectangle that is about 1" thick.
- Using a dough scraper or a sharp knife, cut the rectangle into 12-16 triangles.
- Transfer the wedges to a prepared baking sheet.
- Brush the tops with the egg wash, then sprinkle the raw sugar on top of them.
- Pop the baking sheet into the freezer for 15 minutes.
- Bake the scones and make the glaze
- While the scones chill, preheat the oven to 425°F.
- When the scones are cold, transfer to the preheated oven. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the scones are a golden brown.
- While the scones bake, prepare the glaze in a small bowl or the food processor where you pulverized the freeze-dried strawberries.
- To make the glaze, combine all the ingredients and whisk together until smooth. Set aside.
- When the scones are baked and have cooled, drizzle with the glaze, and enjoy immediately.
