Blueberries and Cream Scones

MAKES: 8 scones

PREP: 13 Min

COOK TIME: 30 Min

Who doesn't love berries and cream? We know we sure love them even more when baked into a scrumptious scone, just like we have here!

What You'll Need

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup cold butter, cut into pieces
3/4 cup whipping cream
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup frozen blueberries (See note)
1 tablespoon whipping cream
1 tablespoon turbinado or granulated sugar

What to Do

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Combine first 4 ingredients in a bowl; cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 forks until crumbly. Stir in 3/4 cup whipping cream and the vanilla until dry ingredients are moistened. Gently fold in blueberries.
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat dough into an 8-inch circle on a lightly greased baking sheet. Cut into 8 wedges, using a sharp knife. (Do not separate wedges.) Brush wedges evenly with 1 tablespoon whipping cream; sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until golden.

Notes

Frozen blueberries are the choice for these scones. Quickly rinse off any ice crystals from the frozen berries, if desired, but do not allow them to thaw or they'll become mushy and "bleed" during baking.

You did not say to kneed after it was turned out on floured surface ,so I just squished it together, transferred it to a cookie sheet to pat down. Rather messy, but they tasted good.

Would fresh Blueberries work in this recipe?

Of course! Fresh blueberries would work great. The benefit of using frozen blueberries is that if they are not in season, you can make these delicious scones all year round! Enjoy!
