Blackberry Scones Recipes

BLACKBERRY SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 F.
• Ina medium bowl, measure out 2 cups of self-rising flour.
• If you don't have self-rising flour in your kitchen, use this: 2 cups flour + 1 tbsp baking powder + ¼ tsp salt.
• Add the blackberries and sugar to this mixture and stir together.
• I kept the blackberries whole for this scone recipe because I love big juicy bites of cooked blackberries studded throughout the scone.
• Plus blackberries get crazy messy if you try to cut them in half, so there's that.
• Measure out 1 ½ cups whipping cream into a measuring cup, pour into the flour mixture, and stir.
• Use your hands to gather the dough together (use a bit of extra flour on your hands if it's too sticky), and put it onto a sprayed baking sheet.
• Pat the dough into a circle about ¾" thick.
• Slice into 8 wedges.
• Bake at 475F for 12-15 minutes until golden on top, and until the middle of the scones is cooked.
• Enjoy your scones!
