Strawberry Scones

Can a morning get higher than freshly baked strawberry scones topped with strawberry preserves? I like scones as a result of they’re simple to make, and never too candy. They’re excellent for breakfast and even as the bottom for a strawberry shortcake topped with recent berries and whipped cream.  I’ve made so many variations from Chocolate Chip Buttermilk Scones to Apple Scones with Spiced Glaze and even Blueberry Scones.

 

Strawberries are in abundance this time of 12 months, they usually all the time make me consider scones. These Strawberry Scones are a scrumptious manner to make use of up recent strawberries. For extra of my favourite methods to bake with strawberries, do that Strawberry Rhubarb Baked Oatmeal, Strawberry Squares, and Roasted Strawberry Banana Bread.

What’s the secret to creating good scones?

There are just a few methods to creating excellent scones.

  • The primary is to maintain the dough as chilly as potential. I take advantage of frozen butter and chilly buttermilk to verify the dough doesn’t get too heat.
  • Additionally, make certain to not overwork the dough while you’re mixing it.
  • And lastly, while you place the scones on the baking sheet, don’t press them down.

How one can Make Strawberry Scones from Scratch

First, combine the strawberries with one tablespoon of sugar. Subsequent, combine the flours, remaining sugar, salt, and baking powder, after which grate the frozen butter into the dry elements.

Mix the buttermilk and vanilla and slowly stir into the flour. Fold within the strawberries and drop eight giant spoonfuls of dough onto a baking sheet. Then, sprinkle with sugar and bake at 400 levels for 18 minutes.

How one can Meal Prep

These scones freeze effectively and can be excellent for a fast breakfast. Freeze leftovers in a zip-locked bag or reusable container and thaw in a single day within the fridge. Reheat within the oven or microwave.

Variations:

  • Swap strawberries with blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries.
  • If strawberries aren’t in season, use frozen.
  • If you wish to use solely white flour, the factors stay the identical.
