- 2 cups all-purpose flour - 1/4 cup granulated sugar - 1 teaspoon baking powder - 1/2 teaspoon baking soda - 1/4 teaspoon salt - 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed - 1/2 cup mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, etc.) - 1/2 cup buttermilk - 2 tablespoons heavy cream - 1 egg - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Sheets
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
Step 2: Make the Dough
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut in the butter using a pastry blender or two forks until it resembles coarse meal. Stir in the mixed berries.
Step 3: Make the Glaze
In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, heavy cream, egg, and vanilla extract.
Step 4: Combine the Dough and the Glaze
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Step 5: Cut and Bake
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently a few times. Pat the dough into a 3/4-inch thick circle. Cut the dough into 8 wedges and place them on the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown.
Step 6: Glaze and Serve
Once the scones have cooled slightly, brush with the glaze and serve. The Best Glazed Mixed Berry Scones are the perfect treat for any occasion. They are tender and fluffy on the inside with a sweet and tangy glaze on the outside. The combination of the tart mixed berries and the glaze make for a delicious breakfast or snack. Enjoy!
