Ingredients

Servings

• 2 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoon Sugar
• 2 teaspoon Baking powder
• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsalted butter, cold
• ¹⁄₂ cup Heavy cream
• 1 large Egg
• 1 tablespoon Dried lavender flowers

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and dried lavender.
3. Cut the cold butter into small pieces and add it to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and egg. Pour the mixture into the flour mixture and stir until just combined.
5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it a few times to bring it together.
6. Pat the dough into a circle about 1-inch thick. Use a round biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out scones from the dough.
7. Place the scones onto the prepared baking sheet and brush the tops with a little extra cream.
8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown.
9. Remove from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before serving.
