Ingredients for this Recipe:
For the Scones:
• 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup sugar + 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• pinch of sea salt
• 1 1/3 sticks cold unsalted butter
• 1 cup cold buttermilk
• 2 large eggs
• 1 ½ cups fresh blueberries
• melted unsalted butter
For the Glaze:
• ½ cup sifted powdered sugar
• 1 to 2 tablespoons whole milk
Makes 12 scones
Prep Time: 10 Minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Resting Time: 90 minutes
1. Preheat the oven to 375°.
2. Add the flour, 1 cup of sugar, baking powder and salt to a large bowl and mix with a whisk.
3. Next, grate the butter on a cheese grater and fold it into the dry ingredients.
4. In a separate bowl whisk together the buttermilk and eggs and add it to the bowl with the dry ingredients and using a rubber spatula or spoon mix until it becomes a dough.
5. Fold in the blue berries gently until completely combined into the dough.
6. Place the dough onto a clean surface dusted with flour and roll out until it is 1” thick.
7. Cut the dough into 12 triangle pieces and place them into a circle ¼” to ½” apart from one another on a sheet tray lined with parchment paper.
8. Chill the dough on the sheet tray in the refrigerator to harden the butter in the dough for 20 to 25 minutes.
9. Remove the dough and brush with melted butter and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of sugar.
10. Bake at 375° for 25 to 30 minutes or until the edges turn lightly brown. Remove and place on a rack and cool to room temperature.
11. Glaze: Whisk together the powdered sugar and milk until combined and drizzle the glaze over top of the cooled scones and serve. Note: There may be some glaze leftover.
CHEF NOTES:
• To make homemade buttermilk whisk together 1 cup of whole milk with 1 tablespoons of white distilled vinegar. You can also sub the vinegar with lemon juice.
• GLAZE: You can also replace the milk with fresh squeezed lemon juice to enhance the flavor of the blueberry scones.
• STORING AND FREEZING BLUEBERRY SCONES: Blueberry scones can be stored wrapped in plastic at room temperature for 3 days or kept in the refrigerator for 5 days. Blueberry scones also freeze well wrapped tightly in plastic for up to 3 months. Simply thaw in the refrigerator a day before wanting to serve them. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Made these today and they were amazing! The texture was light and fluffy and the flavor was amazing. My husband and kids couldn’t wait til morning to have a taste so they ended up as dessert for after dinner. I might add that even my son, who normally doesn’t like bready pastries, LOVED this one. I added the zest of two lemons into mine, and made a glaze with the lemon juice to drizzle on top.
Here are some tips I wanted to share for this recipe:
Add the blueberries into the dry mixture. If you attempt to add them after the wet mixture is incorporated, you will crush the blueberries (unless they’re frozen) and your batter will turn blue and purple.
If you’re new to making scones, know that your batter is supposed to be very sticky. The stickier the batter, the better. You are not making dough. It’s supposed to be crumbly looking before baking, not smooth. If it’s smooth your scones will come out doughy and tough. You avoid this by NOT over mixing your ingredients together. Once the wet ingredients are poured into the dry ingredients, mix until they are incorporated, as in you won’t see any more flour. Once there is no more dry flour, STOP mixing. You aren’t trying to make it smooth at all. You just want to incorporate. Key word.
Once you pour your batter onto your lightly floured counter, it will look like sticky mud with no shape at all. That’s what you want. Don’t attempt to mix it thinking it’s wrong. It’s not. Lightly flour the top of the batter, then flour your rolling pin. Roll the batter into a one inch plateau. When you cut into it to make shapes, it literally will be hard to actually keep the shape when you scrape it from your counter to place into your baking sheet, but that’s ok, you can shape it once you’ve placed it on the baking sheet. Pop it into the freezer like he said. I placed mine in the freezer for 15min. Depending on the size of your scones, they can be done in the oven even before the 25 min mark, so keep checking. You want golden edges with a lightly tanned top.
I wanted to share my tips because of a previous scone making experience I had. I’m new to scone making, so this is why I needed details. I followed another scone recipe before this that gave me the exact same wet texture. None of the comments mentioned that it was ok to have a sticky, wet texture, so I assumed I needed to keep adding more flour so I could actually work it into a ball to flatten and eventually to shape them out. Because the texture was so sticky, I kept adding more flour, and of course adding more flour meant continually mixing the batter. I ended up over mixing the whole thing and it ended up becoming a smooth dough. I didn’t know any better. Even though they were easier to shape into triangles, I ended up with dense, tough and doughy scones. A comment like this could’ve saved me a lot of time.
Thank you for this awesome recipe!
Thanks for giving it a shot
Omg I thought that I was the only one who was having issues with the dough being super stick to a point it was all over my hands. 3 tries and I was like, keep adding flour until it doesn't stick. Thank you for your review because I was thinking I have met my match when it comes to making pastries! I would love to see someone make the scones when the dough is wet and sticky.
OMG yes very sticky not perfectly shaped but I am so excited to try them they are currently in the fridge waiting for my shift to end in an hour #covidlife
@@ThreeGGD I’m making it right now but was the dough purple?? cuz my berries popped and that’s cuz they were frozen lol
Thank you for taking the time to write this! Saves me from making the same mistake ;)
Yo I made this today and my wife did not believe that I made these! She was all looking in the trash for the like a store bought box of ready to mix batter lol! These turned out great I added blueberry and a little bit of almonds. They pair well!
Love this! Thanks for giving it a shot!!
OMG, tried this recipe and my honey whom is A Brit said, "Theses scones are the best i've ever had in my life!" Thanks🔬🇬🇧
Fantastic! Thanks for trying them.
I tried this recipe following it to the dot, and I got a liquidy green-grey dough :'( I dont know where I went wrong
JJ Starr Your honey would say that if they burned 😉
Princess Leigh-Cheri Try adding the DRAINED blueberries to the dry ingredients.
@@Dominicanese 😂
I think some lemon juice to make that glaze would be out of this world. Can’t wait to try these!
I just made this recipe & I did add lemon juice to the glaze! Yum!!!! Great minds think alike ☺️
I used lemon zest in the dough and juice in the glaze 👌
Will be making these this weekend. Looks amazing, thanks!
Add the blueberries to the dry ingredients. A tsp of lemon zest and/ or lemon glaze (powdered sugar and lemon juice) would be amazing on these.
Jane A great idea with the blueberries. It’s hard to incorporate them otherwise.
@@iminco9844 yes-that is a really good call.
I love this recipe! Thank you so much for sharing 😋
I love how you give instructions for storing and freezing these. As if there will be any left to store let alone freeze! ;) Mine are in the oven now! Thank you for the time you spent being very clear with both typing in the description box, and explaining as you went.
I just made these for my family...literally eating them right now. Golden & crispy on the outside, soft inside. Mmmmmm! I added lemon juice to the glaze 👌🏻
Thank you for the recipe! I am from Finland and this was the first time I baked US style scones, before this I have baked British style scones. I really liked the basic recipe, really tasty! I definitely will be trying more US bakery style scones. Using egg was new but it was really nice new twist to scones recipe! Happy Christmas to all of you who read this!
Happy Easter!
What's the British style scone ?
Wow can’t wait to make scones, your recipe is awesome! Thank you😀
The butter hack . It's gold. thank you.
I. Know. Rig....t.$:73&/7:&:).!.7.!:6&:):$(:$/?/?.$.!:7!.7.!/8/&
wasser kolor I hate this. I’d rather cut the butter in by hand or by food processor and chill the dough at length.
@@iminco9844 I find scones are more buttery this way. I used to do it by hand .
it's been around a while now. they often do this for biscuits too.
Just made these! They came out super fluffy and delicious. My boyfriend loved them! I made mine with the fresh squeezed lemon glaze.
You always make it into my recipe folder! 🙏 Thank you for such amazing recipes.
Omg I made these and they were the best I’ve ever had. Soft soft smell amazing. Thank you for this recipe

I made these scones yesterday and it was absolutely delicious! This recipe will be kept in the family for a LONG time! The idea of throwing in a bit of lemon zest and juice next time to add that tangy flavour may take it to another level. Thanks so much for this, Chef Parisi!! Looking forward to more cooking and baking with you!!

Perfect. Thank you very much. Best Scone ever!

I've made many scones and this is by far the very best recipe! The cold butter tip is essential! These are light, moist and have the most amazing delicate flavor. My husband is not a pastry fan, but I couldn't keep him out of these! Super Yummy!
Thanks for giving it a shot!!

Thank you :-)
Fantastic. Thank you!
Our daughter hosted a tea for this Easter's family gathering. My job was baking, so I made this recipe, blueberries and all The only alteration was to alter the cup of sugar with 1/2 raw and 1/2 white. They ARE fantastic. I used the same format and substituted cinnamon flakes for the blueberries, adding one TBS of ground cinnamon into the dry ingredients. Wonderfully soft, fluffy and super delicious. Thank you... Jack
Awesome. Thank you for sharing the information regarding the recipes. You even have instructions how to prepare of which a lot of people do not. Again, thank you.
😮 I've just seen different recipes, and this is absolutely looks like the best! Yum!!

I followed this recipe, even at high altitude (Denver) these turned out perfect! Thank you!
this recipe is so delicious! i used frozen blueberries and they helped keep things cold while rolling out the dough. No need to thaw them before including them in recipe. bake as usual. 😊
AWSOME!
Thanks for the amazing recipe. They are wonderful and delicious like a "piece of heaven".
I love your channel, and especially this recipe!
Thank you so much!
These came out great! Highly recommend 👌
These are the Best scones I've ever made. I also added the zest of 1 1/2 large lemons and served them with lemon curd instead of adding any glaze. The scones were delicious and flaky!

Thank you kindly!
I'm going to try these ! They look so good!
Made these a few days ago for my wife and 11yr old son. Had to 1/2 the recipe as we were down to exactly 2 cups of flour. Came out AMAZING! My wife said these scones were better than her favorite bakery in town! She’s a tough bakery customer too! Thanks Chef Billy! Truly, thank you! Great recipe, and great video! Very inspiring. Had never made scones before 2 days ago. Making another batch now for Easter morning over here in CA and looking forward to round 2 :) Thanks again for the great recipe and great video! Happy Easter to you and yours!🙏🏽 Drew

So dang good!!!
I have a similar recipe but add lemon zest to the mix and top with a lemon glaze like above, my most requested scone.
they turned out really good!!!!!
2:46 a little egg shell went in batter, but like my grandma says that makes it taste better😉
Good catch, only a couple people noticed so far. I fished it out.
I noticed and went straight to the comments to see if anyone else did
@@ALERIA441711 same!!
Cari Nemia ha ha me too!!!!
I noticed it immediately and scrolled down to comment but saw that you had beat me to it. LOL!

Thanks for watching
awesome
Merci beaucoup!
Thank you! Planning to have a tea party!
Thanks for the secrets!!
Thanks for watching
Thank you! I've made these three times now and my people love them! A question! Is there a reason for not using a mixer to mix the dough (as described in your video for making buttermilk biscuits)?
Edit: I see you've already answered this question saying that a mixer can be used. :) Thanks!
After searching for a good recipe, my 9yr granddaughter chose this one. We tried this recipe today and everyone was happy. This recipe is def a keeper....yum!!! Thanks for sharing
Fantastic!
I just made these but I only had frozen wild blueberries. I dried them as much as possible and I left the dough in the fridge for 30 mins they are delicious! I will definitely make them again with fresh berries. I don’t think I can ever do store bought again!
Looks heavenly
Thank you!
I just finished making these DELICIOUS scones and my family ABSOLUTELY LOVES THEM!!! I didn’t have buttermilk on hand so I added lemon juice to milk and it worked just as well! THANKS FOR THE RECIPE!!!! 😄😆😆
Kelly Yan I just tried this recipe out and the ‘dough’ was more like an extremely thick batter. Really, really sticky. Was that your experience?
@@vidbox44 HI! For me, the batter came to shape but was still pretty sticky. I had to make sure that I had a ton of flour nearby so it wouldn't stick to my hands or my cutting board. I think the part where the eggs and milk come into action is the point where it could mess up the batter. Maybe you have extra large eggs? My parents buy pretty medium/smallish eggs so I think that might be why my dough formed a bit more. Hmmm I actually don't know what the best thing to do when a batter is too sticky. I would think adding more flour would mess up the texture huh... 🤔
I did use XL eggs, yes! I bought them because Ina Garten’s recipes call for them. I’ll bet that’s what did it. I also may have mixed it too much and the butter melted. It was hot in NY that day. I did end up adding flour to handle the dough, and they were a little dry. I will try it again with regular eggs, and less mixing. Thanks for the reply!
oh my goodness they look super good, just got some fresh blueberries to today, so into the kitchen to make your recipe. Thanks for sharing :)
Thanks for watching!
I just made these for the first time and I pledged to make them once a month! 👌🏼
awesome!
Excellent. I know the feeling of success...all you can do is laugh when it's sooooo good. Thank you.
Best scones I’ve ever made! It’s actually sugary enough that you could do without the icing.
