This is a blog of my adventures in the kitchen. I always like to try new things, and I'm looking up different recipes constantly. Some recipes on here will be my own, some will be found recipes. Some will work, some won't. Trial and error, right? I'm no professional and I don't claim to be, I just enjoy cooking. :)

Blueberry Scones



Sorry, again I don't have the step by step pictures. I was halfway through with making these before I remembered I wanted to take photos! lol...

I got this recipe from the Taste of Home website. I'll post the URL with the recipe. In the future, I think I'll make a fresh lemon glaze to go over them. Mmmm...

Blueberry Scones

What you'll need:

4 cups all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons sugar (As suggested in the reviews, I used 8.)
4-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons cold butter
2 eggs
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons milk, divided
1-1/2 cups fresh or *frozen blueberries

Directions:

In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a bowl, whisk eggs and 3/4 cup milk; add to dry ingredients just until moistened. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; gently knead in the blueberries.

Divide the dough in half. Pat each portion into an 8-in. circle; cut each into eight wedges. Place on greased baking sheets. Brush with remaining milk. (I sprinkled a little sugar on top.) Bake at 375° for 15-20 minutes or until tops are golden brown. Serve warm.

* If using frozen blueberries, use without thawing to avoid discoloring the batter.
