Categories     Breakfast     Brunch     Dessert

Time 48m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ½ cups strawberries (cut into 1/2-inch dice)
1 tbsp fresh mint (chiffonade)
1 tbsp granulated sugar
⅓ cup granulated sugar
3 cups all-purpose flour
½ tsp kosher salt
2 ½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
2 tbsp lemon zest
¾ cup Alpenrose unsalted butter (frozen and grated)
1 cup Alpenrose buttermilk
3 tbsp Alpenrose half and half (for brushing scones)
2 strawberries (sliced for topping scones)
1 tbsp sugar (coarse, for topping scones)
½ cup confectioner's sugar (sifted)
2 tbsp lemon juice

Steps:

  • To start, combine the diced strawberries, mint, sugar and vanilla in a bowl and toss to combine. Let them sit for 10 minutes to combine flavors, then strain any liquid.
  • Combine the flour, lemon zest, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl. Add the cold grated butter and either cut with a pastry cutter or a fork until the mixture looks coarse. (You should still see pieces of butter/flour "balls" about the size of chickpeas)
  • Make a well in the middle and add the buttermilk and the strawberry mint mixture. Mix until just combined. Don't over mix.
  • Turn out onto a floured work surface and gently knead the dough until everything is incorporated. Pat the dough into a flat round disk about 1 inch thick. Wrap the disk in plastic wrap and freeze for 15 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
  • Use a large sharp knife to cut the disk into 8 wedges. Gently transfer the wedges, placing 1" apart on a baking sheet lined with a silpat or parchment paper. Brush the tops of the scones with half and half, then press a slice of strawberry on top. Sprinkle coarse sugar on top.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes or until lightly browned. In the meantime, prepare your glaze.
  • Once done cooking, remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack. Drizzle with lemon glaze while still slightly warm.
  • Whisk 1/2 cup confectioner's sugar and 2 tablespoons lemon juice until your mixture becomes pasty. Add more sugar or juice to achieve desired consistency.
  • Serve with a side of your favorite jam, Alpenrose unsalted butter, coffee, tea, or a cold glass of Alpenrose milk.

STRAWBERRY SCONES WITH LEMON GLAZE



Strawberry Scones with Lemon Glaze image

Crisp on the outside, moist inside, and fruity all throughout-these scones give you a tasty reason to rise and shine. Freeze-dried strawberries have a super-concentrated berry flavor; they work great here because, unlike fresh fruit, they don't let off any moisture as they cook. They can be rather expensive at specialty markets, but I have discovered that Target now carries them at a much lower price; look for their Simply Balanced line with the dried fruit.

Time 35m

Yield Serves 8 (serving size: 1 scone)

Number Of Ingredients 10

7 ounces whole-wheat pastry flour (about 1 3/4 cups)

2/3 cup nonfat buttermilk
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup powdered sugar
2 1/2 to 3 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Weigh or lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour,granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives (or your fingers) until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add strawberries; toss to combine. Combine buttermilk and vanilla; drizzle over flour mixture. Toss with a fork until dough comes together; knead lightly in bowl to bring dough together.
  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; pat dough out into a 7-inch circle. Cut dough into 8 equal wedges. Arrange dough wedges on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake at 400°F for 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool slightly.

STRAWBERRY AND PROSECCO SCONES WITH SPARKLING LEMON ICING



Strawberry and Prosecco Scones with Sparkling Lemon Icing image

Provided by Jeff Mauro, host of Sandwich King

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 scones

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups all-purpose flour, plus additional for dusting
4 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/3 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup prosecco, or more as needed
2/3 cup hulled and chopped fresh strawberries
1/3 cup white chocolate chips
Sparkling Lemon Icing, recipe follows
Zest of 1 lemon
1 cup confectioners' sugar, plus additional as needed
Zest of 1 lemon
Pinch kosher salt
1 to 2 tablespoons prosecco

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Pulse together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt in a food processor. Add the butter and pulse until pea-sized butter balls form, about 20 seconds. Turn out into a bowl.
  • Whisk together the buttermilk and prosecco in another bowl and gently mix together with the dry ingredients. Gently fold in the strawberries and white chocolate chips. (The dough should be dry, but if it looks very dry and isn't coming together into a loose dough, add in a splash or two more of prosecco.)
  • Gently roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface into a circle about 1 1/2 inches thick, then cut into 8 wedges. (See Cook's Note.) Transfer to the parchment-lined baking sheet and bake until golden brown, 16 to 18 minutes. Let cool completely, then drizzle with Sparkling Lemon Icing and sprinkle with fresh lemon zest.
  • Whisk together the confectioners' sugar, zest, salt and 1 tablespoon prosecco. If too thin, add more sugar; if too thick, add more prosecco.

BLUEBERRY SCONES WITH LEMON GLAZE



Blueberry Scones with Lemon Glaze image

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.

LEMONY CRANBERRY HAZELNUT SCONES WITH LEMON GLAZE



Lemony Cranberry Hazelnut Scones with Lemon Glaze image

I make these for teachers for Valentine's Day, but they are wonderful any day of the week. They are tender and flaky and lemony. You can use dried cranberries (which I do) and leave out the nuts if you'd like. The glaze is wonderful, and I haven't found a person who doesn't just love these scones.

Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
¼ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup cold unsalted butter
⅓ cup fresh cranberries
¼ cup chopped hazelnuts
2 eggs
½ cup buttermilk
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon heavy whipping cream
½ cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Whisk flour, white sugar, baking powder, lemon zest, and salt together in a large bowl. Cut unsalted butter into flour mixture with a knife or pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add cranberries and hazelnuts.

Tips:

  • Proper Ingredients: Ensure you have fresh, high-quality ingredients, especially the strawberries. Use ripe, juicy ones for the best flavor.
  • Chilling the Butter: Before incorporating the butter into the scone dough, make sure it is cold and firm. This prevents the butter from melting too quickly and helps create flaky layers in the scones.
  • Gentle Mixing: When combining the dough ingredients, handle them gently. Over-mixing can result in tough scones. Use a light touch and work the dough just until it comes together.
  • Chilling the Dough: After forming the scone dough, chill it for at least 30 minutes. This helps firm up the dough and makes it easier to cut and shape.
  • Proper Baking: Bake the scones in a preheated oven at the right temperature. Adjust the baking time based on the size of your scones to ensure they are cooked through but not overbaked.
  • Lemon Glaze Consistency: For the lemon glaze, aim for a thick but pourable consistency. If it's too thick, add a little more lemon juice; if it's too thin, add a touch more powdered sugar.

Conclusion:

With careful attention to detail and a love for baking, you'll create delicious and delightful strawberry scones with lemon glaze. These scones are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or an afternoon treat. They combine the sweetness of strawberries with the tangy freshness of lemon, resulting in a delightful flavor combination. Enjoy these scones warm out of the oven, with a cup of tea or coffee, and savor every bite. Whether you're a seasoned baker or just starting your culinary journey, this recipe will guide you through the process and help you create a memorable and tasty experience. Happy baking!
