Easy Blueberry Scone Recipe

Scones have their origins in the British cuisine and are akin to biscuits, especially when sugar is omitted.  However, by incorporating frozen fruits, such as blueberries, oranges, or mangoes, one can create delightful, sweet scones. This easy recipe features self-rising flour and heavy cream for a simple yet delicious treat. Indulge in these easy-to-make blueberry scones that promise a burst of fruity flavor with every bite!

Ingredients:

- 1 cup self-rising flour

- 1/3 to 1/2 cup sugar (depending on your sweetness preference)

- 1/4 cup cold butter

- 1/3 to 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

Add-ons:

- 3/4 cup frozen blueberries

- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

- 1 tsp cinnamon powder

Directions:

1. Begin by preheating your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. In a mixing bowl, add the self-rising flour.

3. Cut the cold butter into small pieces and incorporate it into the flour using a fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

4. Gently fold in the frozen blueberries, vanilla extract, and cinnamon powder into the flour mixture.

5. Gradually pour in the heavy whipping cream, using a spatula to gently mix until the dough comes together in a ball.

6. Lightly flour your countertop and transfer the dough onto it. Pat the dough into a rough circle about 2 inches thick.

7. Cut the dough into 4 to 6 even portions and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spaced about 2 inches apart.

8. If desired, brush each scone with an egg wash for a golden finish.

9. Bake for approximately 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a scone comes out clean.

10. Serve the scones warm and enjoy!

Tips: you can shape the dough rough shape or rectangular shape
