Simple And Yummy Blueberry Scones

Total Time: 35 mins Preparation Time: 20 mins Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 5 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup fresh blueberries (you can use the frozen kind of you need to, but fresh are preferred)
  • heavy cream (for brushing over top)
  • sugar, for top

Recipe

  • 1 first preheat oven to 425°f.
  • 2 then take out a large baking sheet and grease it; set it aside.
  • 3 in a large bowl, you will need to combine your flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and allspice.
  • 4 cut your butter into flour mixture with pastry knife (or a fork if you don't have one - you can even use your hands) making sure to cut it through until it looks crumbly.
  • 5 now you will need to make a well in the center of this mixture and add the milk.
  • 6 beginning stirring mixture, then add your blueberries, and finish stirring until dough forms.
  • 7 if you feel that it is not forming well, you can always add a tiny bit of milk to make it all come together, but be careful not to add much more milk, and do not overwork the dough.
  • 8 now you must form the dough into one large round (like a ball), and flatten it out into a 10 inch disk.
  • 9 with a sharp knife, cut the dough into 10 wedges; you can do so by cutting it exactly as you would cut a pie!
  • 10 slide disk of scone wedges on to baking sheet sheet (not necessary to separate at this time). brush tops with cream, and sprinkle sugar over the cream.
  • 11 bake scones for 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • 12 remove from baking sheet when done, and cut the wedges where you made your cuts earlier.
  • 13 serve warm with my blueberry sauce or with butter and honey!
  • 14 you can even eat them plain!
