Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 1 cup Fresh or frozen blueberries
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Coarse sugar (for sprinkling, optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to crush them.
In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and egg.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and gently stir until the dough just comes together. Avoid overmixing.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and shape it into a circle approximately 8 inches in diameter and 1 inch thick.
Using a sharp knife or bench scraper, cut the circle into 8 equal wedges.
Transfer the wedges to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. If desired, sprinkle the tops with coarse sugar for a sweet, crunchy finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the scones from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
