Bakery Style Blueberry Scones
These bakery-style blueberry scones are buttery, crumbly, and full of juicy blueberries.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup cold butter cut into small pieces
- ½ cup milk
- 1 egg beaten
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the cold butter to the flour mixture and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut it in until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this will make the scones tough.
- Gently fold in the blueberries.
- Drop the dough by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
- Let cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving.
Notes
- For best results, use cold butter and don't overmix the dough.
- If using frozen blueberries, don't thaw them before adding them to the dough.
- You can add a sprinkle of sugar on top of the scones before baking for extra sweetness.
