How To Make blueberry scones w/ glaze

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 425 degree F. In my food processor, I blended the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Add the cold butter and pulse 6 - 7 times until butter is small pieces.
  • 2
    Mix the cream and vanilla and pour into flour mixture, pulse until batter comes together.
  • 3
    Scrape dough out onto a well floured surface and begin kneading in the blueberries a little at a time. Being careful not to squash. If needed, add a little more flour of too sticky.
  • 4
    Pat out into a circle and score just the tops with a sharp knife, to make wedges. Can sprinkle a few more blueberries on top. Place on greased baking sheet and brush with milk or cream and I sprinkled with Turbinado sugar.
  • 5
    Bake for 18 - 20 minutes or until starting to brown and not doughy in the center. Cool on rack. Cut apart when cool.
  • 6
    Make glaze: Mix all ingredients with a whisk until smooth. I use the whisk and drizzle over each cooled scone.
