Strawberry Scones Recipe
Buttery and flakey scones that melt in you mouth. These biscuits have lots of fresh strawberries that are fresh and fruity when eaten right out of the oven.
Servings: 8 scones
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
- 1/3 cup white sugar
- 3 tsp baking powder
- 1/3 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup cold butter
- 1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries , chopped
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup icing sugar
- 2 tbsp milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F.
- In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
- Add the cold butter to the bowl and using a pastry blender, cut the butter into the flour. Continue until a crumbly consistency is produced. Stir in the chopped strawberries.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg into the milk. Pour the milk mixture into the flour and stir together with your hands with a baking spatula until combined. Work gently and be careful to not over-mix the batter.
- Spread a little flour on a flat work surface. Dump the batter onto the floured work surface and pat down to make a 8 inch disc. Cut into 8 equal wedges.
- Place wedges on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Bake for 16-18 minutes. The scones should be just starting to brown on top.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
- Make the drizzle by mixing the icing sugar with the milk until dissolved. Drizzle over all the scones.
- Enjoy!
