BETH'S BLUEBERRY SCONES WITH EASY LEMON GLAZE
Makes 8 scones

INGREDIENTS:
2 cups (240g) flour
1/3 cup (65 g) sugar
2 tsp (10 ml) of baking powder
3/4 tsp (3.75 ml) salt
1 tbsp (15 ml) lemon zest
10 tbsp (150 g) cold butter, diced into cubes
½ cup (120 ml) heavy cream
1 egg
6 ounces (170g) blueberries
¾ tsp (3.75ml) vanilla extract

Egg Wash:
1 egg
2 tbsp (30ml) milk

Lemon Glaze:
¾ cup (75g) of powdered sugar
2 tbsp (30ml) fresh lemon juice

METHOD:
Preheat oven to 400F (200C).
Line sheet pan with parchment paper.

In a bowl combine flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and lemon zest. Add butter and work by hand until dough resembles a chunky meal. Butter pieces should be these size of a pea. In a small bowl whisk together the cream, the egg and vanilla extract. Create a well in the center of the dry mixture and pour wet mixture in the well. Add the blueberries into well.

Gently mix with a fork or Danish whisk until combined, and then grab dough with floured hands. Turn dough out onto a floured surface. Shape dough into a square, cut into 4 squares and then cut the squares into triangles. You will have 8 triangles. Place the cut scones on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush each scone lightly with the egg wash.

Pop the tray of scones into the freezer for 5 mins to firm up, (or fridge for 15 mins) and then bake for 20-25 mins until golden brown.

Meanwhile, mix up the glaze. Add the sugar and lemon juice in a small bowl, and whisk until smooth. Dip a fork in the glaze and then drizzle it over the scones while still on the baking sheet, running the fork back and forth until scone is lightly covered with the glaze.

That danish whisk is awesome. Also I love how you explain why all these little tips make a difference when baking!

I made these today and they were divine!

The recipe, instruction and portions were on point ! One small thing my dough was a bit too moist for my liking so I added a bit of flour (maybe 2-3 tables spoons) just to get a consistency like in the video.

Amazing. It was buttery and flaky. Outside was nice and crunchy. Inside moist and soft. Almost like a biscuit.

I just made these this morning and WOW! These were absolutely amazing! My son, who only likes Starbucks scones, told me these are WAY better (after he ate two it them 😂). I did use heaping 1 cup frozen blueberries, subbed buttermilk in place of heavy cream (same amount), and heaping 1/3 cup sugar (because of buttermilk). I placed them in freezer to set prior to baking like suggested (this step is especially important). My new go-to breakfast scones!!

Beth, You have the best video of concise directions, reasoning for little tips and how that can benefit the scones, visually and verbally flowing. I've seen a number of scone recipes at this point, and yours was entertaining and beautifully choreographed! And reading all the great reviews, I can't wait to try your scones! Great Job 👏 🌟....

As a child i used to love eating scones with cream and jam 😍 these blueberry scones are fabulous i will be making them. Thank you Beth

[CornellOeltjen]

I’m waiting for them to cool so I can take a bite. Thank for another great recipe

[marilynng]

I’m glad to hear that about mixing by hand, I always mix my pastries by hand because I don’t have a food processor, but now I know that is the best way to go! Thank you Beth for the great recipes and for always sharing your secrets!❤️😉🌺

I had tried many different scone recipes, but yours is the best!! I made blueberry scone and blueberry crumb cake tonight. They both are wonderful. They are the best of the best! I am appreciated your kindness.

mom is from england, would make scones all the time but with raisins. love scones!!

[sadohrs]

Good morning! I just made these scones today. So simple to make. They turned out so tender, flaky and so delicious! I do not own a Danish whisk. I just used a fork. I think the key is the less handling of the dough, the more tender your scones will be. Thank you for this awesome recipe and great presentation as always!

[christinenicolulis]
