Blueberry Scones – King Arthur Flour

Ingredients

2 cups (241g) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour


1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
1 tablespoon (12g) baking powder
6 tablespoons (85g) cold butter, cut into pieces
1 cup (142g) fresh blueberries, or Blueberry Jammy Bits
2 large eggs, beaten
1/4 cup (57g) yogurt, plain or flavored (vanilla is good)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon (6g) grated lemon rind (zest), or 1/4 teaspoon lemon oil
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
2 tablespoons (36g) sparkling white sugar, for sprinkling on top

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a baking sheet, or line with
parchment.

2. Whisk the dry ingredients in a bowl. Add the butter and work it into the dry
ingredients until the mixture is unevenly crumbly; use your fingers, a pastry
blender, or an electric mixer. Gently mix the blueberries with the dry
ingredients.

3. Stir together the eggs, yogurt, vanilla extract, lemon zest or oil, and almond
extract. Add to the dry ingredients and stir very gently, just until combined.
The dough will be quite moist, like cookie dough.

4. Use a muffin scoop, jumbo cookie scoop, or 1/4-cup measure to scoop the
dough onto the prepared sheet in scant 1/4-cupfuls, leaving about 2" between
each.

Perfect your technique

Brush each ball of dough with a bit of milk or cream, and sprinkle with coarse
sparkling sugar.

Bake the scones for 20 to 24 minutes, or until lightly browned and a cake tester or
toothpick inserted into a scone comes out dry. Remove from the oven, and serve
warm.

To reheat, wrap loosely in aluminum foil, and bake in a preheated 350°F oven for
about 8 to 10 minutes.
Store scones, well wrapped, at room temperature for several days. Freeze for longer
storage.
