  • Total Time: 39 minutes
  • Yield: 8-10 scones

Ingredients

– 2 cups all-purpose flour

– 2 tablespoons sugar

– 1 tablespoon baking powder

– 1/4 teaspoon salt

– 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces and chilled

– 1/2 cup fresh blueberries

– 1/2 cup fresh chopped strawberries

– 1 large egg

– 3/4 cup cold heavy cream, plus extra cream for brushing the tops

– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

– Turbinado sugar for sprinkling on top

– 1/2 cup white chocolate chips, melted for drizzling

Instructions

1-Getting started: First, preheat your oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. This step sets the stage for baking those golden, flaky scones with fresh berries that everyone will love.

2-Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 tablespoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt to evenly mix the dry ingredients.

3-Add butter and fruit: Then, add 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces and chilled, and mix until you get pea-sized bits for that signature flaky texture. Gently stir in 1/2 cup fresh blueberries and 1/2 cup fresh chopped strawberries to keep the fruit intact and add bursts of flavor.

4-Combine wet ingredients: In a separate small bowl, whisk 1 large egg, 3/4 cup cold heavy cream, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.

5-Mix dough: Pour this wet mixture over the dry ingredients and stir just until a dough forms, then knead lightly by hand to avoid tough scones. On a lightly floured surface, pat the dough into a 1-inch-thick circle and cut into star shapes using a cookie cutter, placing them on the baking sheet about 2 inches apart.

6-Finish and bake: Brush the tops with extra heavy cream and sprinkle with turbinado sugar for a nice crunch. Bake for 12-14 minutes until golden brown, then cool to room temperature before drizzling with melted 1/2 cup white chocolate chips. Active preparation takes about 20-30 minutes, plus baking and cooling time, making it perfect for busy mornings.
