Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter (cold and cubed)
- 0.5 cups Heavy cream
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Blackberries (cut in halves if large)
- 2 tablespoons Coarse sugar (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and 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 flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, egg, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold the blackberries into the dough, taking care not to crush them too much.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently press it together into a 1-inch-thick rectangle or circle. Use a small round cutter (about 2 inches in diameter) to cut out mini scones. Re-roll scraps as needed to make more scones.
Place the scones about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. If desired, sprinkle the tops with coarse sugar for added sweetness and crunch.
Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the scones are lightly golden on top.
Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature.
