Strawberry Scones Recipe

Bake up a batch of these sweet (and easy) scones for the weekend!

Ingredients

  • 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 Tbs baking powder
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 ½ tsp salt
  • 2 sticks of cold unsalted cubed butter
  • ¾ cup buttermilk
  • 1 Tbs vanilla extract
  • 1 cup diced strawberries
  • Turbinado sugar, for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  2. Use a pastry cutter to work in cold cubed butter until the size of peas.
  3. Make a well in the center and add ¾ cup buttermilk and vanilla extract. Stir with a wooden spoon until just combined, adding a tablespoon of milk at a time if mixture feels to dry to come together.
  4. Gently fold in diced strawberries until evenly distributed.
  5. Use an ice cream scoop to portion 3-inch rounds onto two parchment lined sheet pans. Gently press down each scoop with the palm of your hands.
  6. Sprinkle the tops with turbinado sugar and bake at 375°F for 18–20 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Transfer scones to a cooling rack and let them cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
