Print Recipe

Delicious blueberry scones topped with a zippy lemon glaze, perfect for a cozy morning.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (plus a handful for dusting)
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons cold, unsalted butter (cut into chunks)
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream (or milk)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (for glaze)
  • Zest of 1 lemon (for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Mix dry ingredients: Toss flour, sugar, baking powder, salt in a bowl.
  2. Cut in butter: Use your hands or a fork to cut butter into tiny bits.
  3. Fold in blueberries gently, allowing some to squish.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together cream, egg, and vanilla; pour over flour mixture.
  5. Combine gently to form a dough ball, being careful not to over-mix.
  6. Pat dough into a circle and cut into 8 wedges.
  7. Bake at 400°F for 16–20 minutes until edges are golden.
  8. For glaze, mix lemon juice, zest, and powdered sugar; spoon over warm scones.

Notes

If dough is sticky, dust with more flour; if too dry, add more cream. Freeze butter before cubing for flaky results.
