Time 49m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold, cut in chunks
1 cup heavy cream, plus more for brushing the scones
1 cup fresh blueberries
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
2 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
1 lemon, zest of, finely grated
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Sift together the dry ingredients; the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Using 2 forks or a pastry blender, cut in the butter to coat the pieces with the flour. The mixture should look like coarse crumbs.
  • Make a well in the center and pour in the heavy cream. Fold everything together just to incorporate; do not overwork the dough.
  • Fold the blueberries into the batter. Take care not to mash or bruise the blueberries because their strong color will bleed into the dough.
  • Press the dough out on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle about 12 by 3 by 1 1/4 inches.
  • Cut the rectangle in 1/2 then cut the pieces in 1/2 again, giving you 4 (3-inch) squares.
  • Cut the squares in 1/2 on a diagonal to give you the classic triangle shape.
  • Place the scones on an ungreased cookie sheet and brush the tops with a little heavy cream.
  • Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until beautiful and brown. Let the scones cool a bit before you apply the glaze.
  • Technically you should make this simple lemon glaze in a double boiler (i.e. over a pot of simmering water with a heatproof bowl set on top) but it's even simpler to zap it in the microwave.
  • Mix the lemon juice and confectioners' sugar together in a microwave-safe bowl.
  • Stir until the sugar dissolves.
  • Add the lemon zest and butter.
  • Nuke it for 30 seconds on high.
  • Whisk the glaze to smooth out any lumps, then drizzle the glaze over the top of the scones.
  • Let it set a minute before serving.

LEMON-BLUEBERRY SCONES WITH BLUEBERRY GLAZE



Lemon-Blueberry Scones with Blueberry Glaze image

Definitely not your traditional scone! These scones have a bit of whole wheat flour, a bit of Greek yogurt, a touch of cardamom and ginger--and a nice lemon-blueberry flavor that gets amped up by the addition of a blueberry glaze.

Time 1h30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 ¼ cups whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup white sugar
2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cardamom
1 teaspoon lemon zest
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
½ cup unsalted butter, frozen
½ cup whole-milk Greek yogurt
3 tablespoons heavy cream
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup frozen blueberries, unthawed
1 egg
1 teaspoon water
¼ cup frozen blueberries, thawed
⅔ cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, cardamom, lemon zest, baking soda, salt, and ginger in a large bowl. Grate in frozen butter using a box grater and toss until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Mix yogurt, cream, egg, and vanilla extract together in a small bowl. Add to the flour mixture to form a crumbly dough, stirring just until no dry clumps of flour remain. Stir in unthawed blueberries.
  • Pour crumbly dough onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Press dough together firmly until it forms a cohesive 8-inch circle. Flatten top to ensure the circle is even. Cut into 8 triangular pieces. Arrange the pieces 1 inch apart on the same parchment-lined pan.
  • Whisk egg and water together in a small bowl for the egg wash. Gently brush over the top of each scone.
  • Bake scones in the preheated oven until tops are golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • Use the back of a wooden spoon to press thawed blueberries through a fine-mesh strainer into a medium bowl to extract 2 or 3 tablespoons of juice. Discards skins and seeds. Whisk confectioners' sugar and lemon juice into the blueberry juice until smooth. Drizzle blueberry glaze over cooled scones.

BLUEBERRY SCONES WITH LEMON GLAZE

Provided by Tyler Florence

Time 40m

Yield 8 scones

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold, cut in chunks
1 cup fresh blueberries
1 cup heavy cream, plus more for brushing the scones
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 lemon, zest finely grated

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Sift together the dry ingredients; the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Using 2 forks or a pastry blender, cut in the butter to coat the pieces with the flour. The mixture should look like coarse crumbs. Fold the blueberries into the batter. Take care not to mash or bruise the blueberries because their strong color will bleed into the dough. Make a well in the center and pour in the heavy cream. Fold everything together just to incorporate; do not overwork the dough.
  • Press the dough out on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle about 12 by 3 by 1 1/4 inches. Cut the rectangle in 1/2 then cut the pieces in 1/2 again, giving you 4 (3-inch) squares. Cut the squares in 1/2 on a diagonal to give you the classic triangle shape. Place the scones on an ungreased cookie sheet and brush the tops with a little heavy cream. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until beautiful and brown. Let the scones cool a bit before you apply the glaze.
  • You can make the lemon glaze in a double boiler, or for a simpler alternative, you can zap it in the microwave. Mix the lemon juice with the confectioners' until dissolved in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water for the double-boiler method, or in a microwave-safe bowl. Whisk in the butter and lemon zest. Either nuke the glaze for 30 seconds or continue whisking in the double boiler. Whisk the glaze to smooth out any lumps, then drizzle the glaze over the top of the scones. Let it set a minute before serving.

Tips:

  • Use cold butter: Cold butter creates flaky layers in the scones.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the scones tough.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough helps the scones hold their shape.
  • Bake the scones until they are golden brown: Overbaking will make the scones dry.
  • Make the glaze while the scones are baking: This will give the glaze time to cool slightly before you drizzle it over the scones.

Conclusion:

These lemon blueberry scones are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. The scones are light and fluffy, with a bright lemon flavor and plenty of juicy blueberries. The blueberry glaze adds a sweet and tangy finish. Follow these tips to ensure your scones turn out perfectly: use cold butter, don't overmix the dough, chill the dough before baking, bake the scones until they are golden brown, and make the glaze while the scones are baking. With these tips in mind, you'll be able to enjoy these delicious lemon blueberry scones in no time!
