I often bake scones as a breakfast treat. Today I made them with blueberries, but they are great with other fruits and nuts as well. Other berries are good as well.
Some of my favorite add ins include dried apricots, dried cherries, or dried pineapple. Chopped dates are also great and nuts can be added to any of these. My favorites are pecans or walnuts.
I recently made scones with grated orange zest and pecans and after they were baked I coated them with a glaze made from powered sugar and orange juice.
There is no limit to creative additions. Apple chunks with a sprinkle of cinnamon on top. Chocolate chips. Or simply bake them plain and eat with jam.
There are many different recipes for scones. This one is called The BEST scone recipe, and I tend to agree that it is a good one
Ingredients
2 cups (240 g) all purpose flour
▢3 tablespoons granulated white sugar
▢1 tablespoon baking powder
▢½ teaspoon table salt
▢5 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold
▢1 cup (240 mL) heavy cream
▢1 teaspoon vanilla extract
▢coarse sugar for sprinkling on top
Here is the recipe with detailed
Directions
Do not over incorporate the butter into the mix. The small pea-sized chunks of cold butter is what makes the scones flaky.
Bake in a hot oven. I prefer 425° for 10--12
minutes.
Make a double batch and put the leftovers in the freezer. They are great to have on hand for an afternoon tea break!
There are also savory versions of scones, made with ham, bacon, cheese or various herbs. They are easy to make and a great addition to any meal.

You are definitely a good cook. Its well known by the way you present it. Though I haven't heard of scones much, I wish to give a try. Good day to you Mam.
Scones are very British and similar to what we call bisquits in the US.
Looks really good 😋😋, wish I could taste one of these some day
They are easy to make.

The needlewoman!
We also love making blueberry pies. In autumn, we freeze blueberries and store them in the freezer. Sometimes we also add dried apricots and walnuts to the pie.
As someone who loves sweets and pastries, I would definitely buy a slice if I see it being sold at stores. Looks delicious 😋
This recipe made my palate fall in love, I must make it soon, a few days ago I saw blueberries in the supermarket
Yum @melinda010100, I've been wanting to make scones since seeing @apanamamama's post a couple of weeks ago. I've never added berries to scones, and happen to have blueberries in the refrigerator so guess what I'm making for tea this morning!
It's amazing how well scones freeze, I used to make a big batch when my sons were small. Popped into the oven straight from the freezer, and it's like having a freshly baked scone! That was before the microwave, but I think for scones, the oven would be best?
Thank you for sharing your recipe🤗
15 seconds in the microwave and it's almost like fresh baked! Hope you enjoy the blueberry add in!
Wow! It looks fantastic!
