Time 50m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
Grated peel of 1 lime
1 cup cold butter
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup fresh blackberries
2 tablespoons whipping cream
2 tablespoons sanding sugar or turbinado sugar (raw sugar)
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon whipping cream

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400°F. Line cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper.
  • In large bowl, mix flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and lime peel. Cut in butter, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until mixture is crumbly. Stir in buttermilk and vanilla until dough forms. Fold in blackberries, gently smashing berries into dough.
  • Divide dough in half; place each half on cookie sheet. Pat dough into 6-inch rounds. Cut each into 6 wedges; separate wedges slightly. Brush with 2 tablespoons whipping cream. Sprinkle tops with sanding sugar.
  • Bake 14 to 16 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix glaze ingredients. Drizzle over scones. Serve warm.

I'm not a huge fan of blackberries, but I loved these scones! The lime flavor really shines through, and the scones are so light and fluffy.

These scones were easy to make and turned out great! The only thing I would change is to add a bit more sugar to the topping.

These scones were a delightful burst of flavor! The combination of tart blackberries and zesty lime was perfectly balanced, and the scones themselves were light and fluffy. I especially loved the crunchy sugar topping.
