Equipment

  • Food processor

Ingredients
  

Scone

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • cup granulated sugar
  • 2 ½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ cup unsalted butter cold, cut into small cubes
  • 1 cup dried blueberries
  • 1⅓ cup heavy whipping cream divided
  • 2 tsp lemon zest

Glaze

  • 2 Tbsp Lemon Juice
  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In your food processor, add flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Pulse briefly to mix.
  • Add butter and pulse until butter is the size of small peas.
  • Add lemon zest and 1 cup plus 1 Tbsp of heavy whipping cream and pulse until just combined.
  • Turn the dough onto a clean work surface and shape into an 8-inch round disk. Cut the disc into 8 even wedges and transfer to baking sheet. Brush the top of each wedge with remaining heavy whipping cream. (If freezing, transfer to freezer at this stage)
  • Bake until lightly/medium browned. 20-25 minutes. Transfer the scones to a wire rack and cool for 5-10 minutes.
  • While the scones are cooling, whisk the lemon juice and powdered sugar together to form the glaze (can reduce to half or quarter batch if freezing some of the scones).
  • Drizzle the glaze over the scones and allow to stand for 10-15 minutes to harden before serving.
