- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon dried lavender
- 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon milk for brushing
- 1 tablespoon coarse sugar for sprinkling
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and dried lavender.
- Cut in the cubed cold butter with a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gently fold in the fresh blueberries.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture, stirring until just combined and a dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and gently knead it a few times to bring it together. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
- Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick circle, and cut into 8 wedges or use a round cutter for desired shapes.
- Transfer the scones to the prepared baking sheet, brush the tops with milk, and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes or until the scones are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the scones to cool on a wire rack before serving.
