| Servings | 12 scones |
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
- 1-2 tablespoons milk (for glaze)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, combine the heavy cream, egg, and vanilla bean paste. Whisk until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times until smooth.
- Pat the dough into a circle about 1 inch thick and cut into wedges or use a round cutter to make circles.
- Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
- While the scones are baking, prepare the glaze by mixing the powdered sugar with enough milk to reach a drizzling consistency.
- Once baked, let the scones cool slightly before drizzling the glaze on top. Enjoy!
