Рецепт Blueberry Scones
I am always in happy land when blueberries are around. :-)
A few days ago I got even happier. AJ left a comment on my blog that directed me to his blog - AJ's Cooking Secrets.
Which is where I saw the recipe for these blueberry scones. I immediately knew what I would be using the blueberries I had just bought for! AJ made Tyler Florence's recipe for blueberry scones. I went to the Food Network site and read the reviews on Tyler's scones. Several people were having trouble with them being dry (AJ had this problem too) - but me? I have to be different you know? I had a problem with them being too wet! ha ha. Could be because I didn't use heavy cream.
I think I was better off with a wetter dough - because I used fresh blueberries and they didn't crush because of the wetter dough. In any case, they were yummy (Justin ate quite a few!). Much better the morning you make them however - so plan to have company!
Blueberry Scones
- Adapted from Tyler Florence Blueberry Scones with Lemon Glaze
- 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 5 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut in chunks
- 1/2 cup International Delight Sugar-Free French Vanilla Creamer
- 1/2 cup 2% milk1 heaping cup fresh blueberries
- Glaze:
- Juice of one large lemon
- grated rind of lemon
1-1/2 cups powdered sugar (more if needed)Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Using a pastry blender, cut in the butter to coat the pieces with the flour until crumbly. Make a well in the center and pour in the creamer and milk. Fold everything together just to incorporate; do not overmix the dough. Fold the blueberries into the batter. Take care not to mash or bruise the blueberries
Press the dough out on a lightly floured baking stone , forming circle. If your dough was wet like mine you may need to use more flour to prevent sticking. Cut into 8 pieces (like you would a pie) and carefully separate scones so they do not touch. Brush the tops with a little of the creamer . Bake for 15 to 20 minutes Let the scones cool slightly before you apply the glaze.
To make the glaze, mix the juice, rind and powdered sugar together. I added 1/4 cup of sugar at a time until the glaze was a good consistency to drizzle over the scones.
**The leftover glaze is delicious drizzled over a fresh fruit salad!
