Provided by Bon Appétit Test Kitchen

Yield Makes 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 cups all-purpose flour plus more for surface
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon dried lavender buds
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) chilled unsalted butter, cut into 1/4" cubes
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons buttermilk
2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons sanding or granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups store-bought lemon curd
Ingredient info: Dried lavender buds (culinary lavender) are available at some supermarkets and natural foods stores.

Steps:

  • Arrange racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 425°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk 3 cups flour and next 5 ingredients in a large bowl. Add butter; rub in with your fingers until mixture resembles coarse meal.
  • Whisk 1 cup buttermilk, zest, and vanilla in a small bowl. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients. Stir until shaggy dough forms.
  • Transfer to a lightly floured surface; knead until dough forms, about 5 turns. Pat into a 10x6" rectangle. Halve dough lengthwise. Cut each half crosswise into 4 squares. Cut each square diagonally in half into 2 triangles. Divide between baking sheets. Brush with 2 tablespoons buttermilk. Sprinkle with sanding sugar.
  • Bake until scones are golden and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 13-15 minutes. Transfer to wire racks; let cool.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature with lemon curd.

These scones were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still very good. The lavender flavor was very subtle, which I liked. I would definitely make these again, but I would use less sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of lavender, but I decided to give these scones a try anyway. I'm so glad I did! The lavender flavor was very mild, and the scones were incredibly moist and flavorful. I'll definitely be making these again.
