Categories     Breakfast

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 c all purpose flour
1/4 c sugar
2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp lemon zest, grated
1/3 tsp salt
1/2 c butter
2/3 c heavy cream
2/3 tsp vanilla extract
OPTIONAL TOPPING
lemon juice
sweetened condensed milk

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat your oven to 375. Grease a baking sheet and set aside.
  • 2. In a medium bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, lemon zest and salt. Cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture looks like crumbs.
  • 3. Slowly pour the cream into the bowl with the flour/butter mixture. Add the vanilla. Stir everything until just combined.
  • 4. Roll out dough on a floured surface, fold in half and repeat. Roll out for a third time into a circle about 3/4 to 1 inch thick. Place on baking sheet. Score into 8 wedges.
  • 5. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until scones test done with a toothpick.
  • 6. OPTIONAL: One of our favorite ways to top scones is by mixing together some lemon juice and/or zest with some sweetened condensed milk and drizzling on top of hot scones. If you don't want to do this, they taste wonderful when served with butter as well.

These scones were delicious! The lemon flavor was perfect and the cream cheese filling was creamy and smooth. I would definitely make these again.

I thought these scones were just okay. They were a bit too dry and crumbly for my taste. I think I would prefer a recipe with more butter or cream next time.

These scones were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I would prefer a lighter and flakier scone next time.

I was disappointed with these scones. They were dry and crumbly, and the lemon flavor was barely noticeable. I won't be making these again.

These scones were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would prefer a recipe with less sugar next time.

The scones were good, but I found the lemon flavor to be a bit overpowering. I think I would prefer a more subtle lemon flavor next time.

These scones were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I might try adding a little more butter or cream to the dough next time.
