Strawberry Sour Cream Scones image

Soft, almost cake-like strawberry scones with a touch of lemon cream cheese frosting. My husband says these are the best scones he has ever eaten! I found a recipe online, but modified it to the ingedients I had on hand and thought might taste the best.

Time 50m

Yield 8 scones, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups flour
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup cold butter
1 cup chopped strawberry
3/4 cup sour cream (or yogurt)
3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon cream cheese
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Combine and mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar in bowl.
  • Use a pastry blender or fork to cut cold butter into flour mixture until well combined and it looks like coarse crumbs.
  • Gently mix in sour cream (or yogurt, flavored or plain) and chopped strawberries until combined.
  • Knead slightly on work surface if needed.
  • Divide dough in half and shape into two balls. Flatten ball and cut into four sections making triangles.
  • Place on prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake 18-22 minutes until scones are brown and don't give too much when touched.
  • Let cool on wire rack.
  • While cooling, cream together softened butter, cream cheese, and confectioners sugar. Add lemon juice to make a soft but still firm frosting.
  • Use the corner of a zip top bag to make a pastry bag, cutting off a very tiny piece of the corner to "pipe" frosting onto cooled scones.
  • Enjoy!

I'm not a big fan of scones, but these were actually really good. The strawberry glaze is what really made them for me.

These scones are a great way to use up leftover sour cream. I always have a container in my fridge, so I can make these scones anytime.

I added some chopped nuts to the dough for a little extra crunch. They were delicious!

These scones are so easy to make and they always turn out perfect. I love that I can use frozen strawberries when fresh ones aren't available.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my scones turned out flat and dense. Maybe I overmixed the dough?

These scones were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

These scones were easy to make and turned out great! I used fresh strawberries from my garden and they were so delicious.

Not a big fan of these scones. They were a bit dry and crumbly. The strawberry glaze didn't really do much for me either.

Wow, these scones were a hit! The combination of strawberries and sour cream made them so moist and flavorful. I'll definitely be making these again.
