For the Scones
Unsalted butter, at room temperature, for greasing the baking sheets
2 cups all-purpose our, plus more for dusting the blueberries
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ne salt
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold, cut in chunks
1 cup heavy cream, plus more for brushing the scones
1 cup fresh blueberries
For the Glaze
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 cups confectioners’ sugar, sifted
Zest of 1 lemon, nely grated
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1. Preheat oven too 400°F. Lightly grease 2 baking sheets (10 x 8
inches) with butter.
2. Sift together the our, baking powder, salt and granulated sugar.
Using 2 forks or a pastry blender cut in the butter to coat the pieces
with the our. The mixture should look like coarse crumbs. Make a
well in the center and pour in the heavy cream. Fold everything
together just to incorporate. Do not overwork the dough. Toss the
blueberries in with some our (to prevent them from sinking to the
bottom of the scone when baked) then fold them into the batter. Take
care not to mash or bruise the blueberries because their strong
color will bleed into the dough.
3. Using an ice cream scoop or a tablespoon, drop mounds of batter
