Fresh Strawberry Scones with Lemon-Strawberry Glaze
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the cream, egg, and vanilla extract. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
-
Gently fold in the chopped strawberries. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it a few times to bring it together.
-
Shape the dough into a circle, about 1 inch thick. Cut into 8 wedges and transfer them to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
-
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown. Allow them to cool on a wire rack.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled scones.
-
Serve and enjoy!
