Delightful lemon blueberry scones that are perfect for breakfast or brunch, bringing warmth and joy to your kitchen.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 1/2 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare yourself for the scent of scones filling your kitchen.
  2. Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until it’s well combined, creating a lovely base for your scones.
  3. Cut in the cold, cubed butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Fold in the blueberries and lemon zest, allowing their bright flavors to infuse into the mixture.
  5. Mix together the heavy cream, egg, and vanilla extract until well blended.
  6. Combine the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
  7. Knead the dough gently a few times on a floured surface, just enough to bring everything together.
  8. Shape the dough into a circle about 1 inch thick and cut into wedges, creating a total of 8 scones.
  9. Arrange the wedges on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  10. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
  11. Cool slightly before serving and enjoy with a little butter or extra blueberries.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat for that fresh-baked taste.
