Equipment

  • Oven
  • baking tray
  • mixing bowl
  • whisk

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoon granulated white sugar
  • 4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoon butter cold
  • 0.67 cup milk
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1 tablespoon milk to glaze
  • 1 cup blueberries

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 425F. Grease a large baking tray and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Whisk together.
  • Cut in the butter in cubes. Using your fingers, combine it into the flour mixture. It will be crumbly.
  • Add the blueberries and toss to combine into the dry ingredients.
  • Slowly start pouring in the milk, mixing as you add it in. You just need the dough to come together and it will be quite sticky.
  • Spoon the batter onto the greased baking tray in big mounds. I made eight large scones.
  • Whisk together the egg with milk and brush the tops of the scones.
  • Bake between 12 – 15 minutes or until puffed up and golden.
  • Remove from oven and allow to cool. Can be served straight away and will keep up to two days in an airtight container.
