STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM SCONES



Strawberries and Cream Scones image

I took a leap and veered from Mom's original shortcake recipe to create this scone recipe with cream and strawberries. Instead of a short biscuit, I made light sweet-cream scones for the shortcake part. The difference was delightful! -Martha Laviolette, South Rockwood, Michigan

STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM SCONES-PANERA BREAD COPYCAT RECIPE - (4.3/5)



Strawberries and Cream Scones-Panera Bread Copycat Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by MJH

Number Of Ingredients 15

Scones:
1/2 cup diced fresh strawberries
1/4 cup half and half
2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
6 tablespoons cold butter, cut into pieces
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2/3 cup diced fresh strawberries
Topping:
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons water
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease (or line with parchment) two baking sheets, or a full-size or mini-scone pan. To make the scones: In a blender or food processor, process 1/2 cup of the strawberries with the half and half or cream until the mixture is smooth. Set it aside. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder. Cut in the butter, using your fingertips, a fork or a pastry blender. In a separate bowl, whisk together the strawberry/half and half mixture, the egg, and the vanilla extract. Stir this mixture into the dry ingredients. Add the 2/3 cup diced strawberries and stir just until everything is well-combined. This is a wet, sticky dough, good for drop scones. Drop the dough by heaping tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets; each scone should be about the size of a golf ball. A tablespoon cookie scoop is exactly the right size for this task. Or divide the dough among the compartments of the scone pan of your choice. Bake the scones until they're golden brown, 15 to 16 minutes (on a baking sheet or in a mini-scone pan), or 18 to 20 minutes (in a standard scone pan). Remove the scones from the oven when they're beginning to brown around the edges. Break one open, just to be sure; they should be moist, but not gummy, at the center. To make the topping: As soon as you remove the scones from the oven, make the topping. Combine the sugar and water in a very small (e.g., 1/4- to 1/3-cup size) microwave-safe bowl, stirring until the sugar is moistened. Heat in the microwave for 20 to 30 seconds, until the mixture is bubbly. Carefully remove from the microwave (sugar syrup is very hot), and stir in the vanilla. Stir until the mixture is smooth. Drizzle or brush the topping over the hot scones.

STRAWBERRY AND CREAM SCONES



Strawberry and Cream Scones image

These tender scones, studded with fresh strawberries, sport an unusual glaze. Based on granulated sugar rather than confectioners', and tinted gold by a very high percentage of vanilla, the topping gives the scones a nicely crunchy finish. They're the perfect vehicle for a dollop of double Devon cream and a dab of jam (try strawberry-rhubarb or my strawberry jam recipe #388115). Strawberry and Cream Scones are great served warm, slathered in Honey Thyme Butter recipe #428651 or my Homemade Lemon Clotted Cream recipe #453683. From KingArthurRecipes.com.

Tips:

  • To achieve a light and flaky texture, use cold butter and work it quickly into the flour mixture. Avoid overworking the dough, as this can result in tough scones.
  • Buttermilk adds a slight tang and tenderness to the scones. If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can make a substitute by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • For a sweeter scone, add 1/4 cup of sugar to the dough. You can also sprinkle the tops of the scones with sugar before baking.
  • To make sure the scones are cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center of one. If it comes out clean, the scones are done. If there is still batter on the toothpick, bake the scones for a few minutes longer.
  • Serve the scones warm, split in half, and topped with strawberries and cream. You can also add a drizzle of honey or jam for extra sweetness.

Conclusion:

These strawberry and cream scones are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert. With their light and flaky texture, sweet strawberry flavor, and creamy topping, these scones are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give these scones a try!
