Additional Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (cold and cubed)

  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Add Butter: Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the sour cream, egg, vanilla extract, and lemon zest. Pour into the dry ingredients and stir to combine.
  5. Add Blueberries: Gently fold in the blueberries.
  6. Shape and Bake: Turn the dough onto a floured surface, shape into a round disk, cut into wedges, and bake for 16–20 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Make Lemon Glaze: Mix powdered sugar and lemon juice to form a glaze. Drizzle over cooled scones.

Notes

  • For best texture, avoid overmixing the dough.
  • You can substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream.
  • If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw before adding.
