Blueberry Scones

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.

In a large mixing bowl, stir together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/3 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.

Grate 1/2 cup cold butter using a cheese grater and stir into the flour mixture OR cut butter into small pieces and use a pastry cutter to cut the fat into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse meal or sand.

Add in 1 cup heavy cream, 1 cup fresh blueberries, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract stirring until the dough just comes together.

Turn the dough out onto a clean countertop and form it into a ball

Press the dough flat until it is 2-inch thick circle. Use a butter knife to cut the circle into 8 wedges.

Place cut scones on an un-greased baking sheet and brush the tops with 2 tablespoons heavy cream.

Bake at 425 degrees for about 12-15 minutes, until the tops are nicely browned.
