Had blueberries I needed to use up and found this recipe by Tyler Florence.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour shopping list
- 1 tbls. baking powder shopping list
- 1/2 tsp. salt shopping list
- 2 tbls. sugar shopping list
- 5 tbls. unsalted butter, cold, cut in chunks shopping list

- 1 cup fresh blueberries shopping list
- 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice shopping list
- 2 cups powdered sugar, sifted shopping list
- 1 lemon, zest finely grated shopping list
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 400
- Sift together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar
- With a pastry blender, cut in butter until dough looks like coarse crumbs Make a well in the center and pour in the heavy cream (His recipe calls for 1 cup heavy cream but in order to get the dough to come together, I had to use almost another 1/4 cup.)
- Fold everything together just to incorporate
- Fold blueberries into batter being careful not to mash blueberries
- Press dough out on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle about 12 by 3 by 1 1/4 inches
- Cut rectangle in 1/2 then cut the pieces in 1/2 again, giving you 4 (3-inch) squares
- Cut squares in 1/2 on a diagonal to give you the classic triangle shape Place scones on parchment lined cookie sheet
- Brush tops with a little heavy cream
- Bake 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown
- Let cool.
- Add lemon juice and sugar to microwave-safe bowl
- Stir until sugar dissolves
- Add lemon zest and butter
- Nuke for 30 seconds on high
- Whisk glaze to smooth out any lumps, then drizzle the glaze over top of scones.
- Let glaze set
