Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 6 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter extra cold

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Gather all the ingredients. Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Note: If you have a sifter, use it to combine all the dry ingredients for an extra light scone.
  2. Grate the cold butter into the flour. Gently fold in the sour cream and vanilla extract until a cohesive dough forms. 
  3. On a well floured surface, roll the dough into a rectangular shape. Spread the diced strawberries all over. Then, roll the dough into a log.
  4. Cut the log at 45° into triangular pieces. Place the scones onto a lined baking sheet. Brush the tops with the whisked egg and sprinkle with sugar.
  5. Bake the scones at 350°F for 30 minutes or until the tops are golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack.
