Description
Delicious strawberry scones drizzled with lemon glaze. Perfect for breakfast or a snack!
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 5 tablespoons butter (cold, cut into 1 tablespoon pieces)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup strawberry jam
- 2/3 cup strawberries (diced)
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/3 cup lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- In a food processor, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the cold butter and pulse until the butter is in small pieces and the flour resembles cornmeal—it should be under 10 pulses. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
- In a medium size mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream and the strawberry jam, mix well, then add to the flour mixture along with the diced strawberries.
- Fold and mix the ingredients with a spatula until all of the dry ingredients are moistened and everything looks combined. Do not over mix.
- Transfer the scone dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently shape the dough into a 10″ circle. Using a large sharp knife, cut into 8 or 10 wedges, then place onto a baking sheet about 1″ apart.
- Bake for about 30 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet.
- In the meantime, whisk together the powdered sugar and lemon juice in a bowl and drizzle over the tops of the scones.
- Serve slightly warm, and enjoy!
Notes
- Can substitute other fruits for strawberries if desired.
- Best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container for a couple of days.
