    Makes nine scones.  

    INGREDIENTS: 

    • 3 cups all purpose flour 
    • 1/3 cup white sugar 
    • 1/2 tsp sea salt 
    • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder 
    • 1/4 tsp baking soda 
    • 3/4 cup butter (cold) 
    • 3/4 cup blueberries (frozen) 
    • 1/2 cup milk 
    • 3/4 cup heavy cream 
    • Turbinado sugar (for sprinkling) 

     

    METHOD: 

    • Preheat oven to 400˚F. 
    • In a large bowl, mix the dry ingredients together.
    • Cut cold butter into the dry ingredients, keeping mixture loose and sandy.
    • Add milk and cream and lightly mix until the wet ingredients are just barely incorporated.
    • Lightly dust the frozen blueberries with flour, then add to bowl. Mix gently.
    • Press dough into a parchment-lined, 8” x 8” glass baking dish and place in freezer for 20-30 minutes — until the dough is cold enough to portion cleanly.
    • Turn the dough out onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and cut into nine squares.
    • Brush each square with cream and top with turbinado sugar.
    • Bake for 30-35 minutes.
