Hello there!

Hi there! It seems like a long time since I have posted anything! I'm sorry this is a few days late, our area got a lot of snow. I hope each of you had a merry Christmas and happy new year! It is a very busy time of the year for my family and I! ~O~ talked to you last week about good T.V recommendations... Today I will be giving you a recipe for blueberry and lemon scones. I do a lot of baking and this is something I recently made and really enjoyed!

2 Cups all-purpose flour
1/2 Cup sugar
3 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 Cup cold butter
Zest and juice of one lemon
3/4-1 cup heavy cream
1 Cups blueberries (toss them in extra flour)
1 tsp vanilla

Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees and line baking sheet with parchment paper. Sift flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Add butter to bowl cutting it into the flour until the largest clump of butter is the size of a pea and flour resembles course meal. Add zest and juice of lemon. Stir in 3/4 cup heavy cream. Press dough together in-between your palms, if it doesn't just stick together add more cream. Add vanilla extract and fold in blueberries.

Pour dough onto lightly floured pastry board. Pat dough into a large round disc about 1 inch thick. Cut dough into equal sized wedges and place on the prepared baking sheet.

Bake scones for 20 -25 minutes or until lightly golden.

Hope you enjoy this recipe!!
