INGREDIENTS

  • Base Ingredients

    • 🌾 2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 🍬 4 tablespoons white sugar, divided
    • 🧂 2 teaspoons baking powder
    • 🧂 ½ teaspoon baking soda
    • 🧂 ½ teaspoon salt
    • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
    • 🧈 ½ cup butter, cut into chunks
    • 1 cup fresh blueberries
    • 🥛 ¾ cup buttermilk
    • 🥚 1 egg white, lightly beaten
    • 🍬 1 tablespoon powdered sugar, or to taste
    • Cooking spray

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Coat 2 baking sheets with cooking spray.

2

Whisk flour, 3 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg together in a large bowl. Cut in butter with 2 knives or a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir blueberries and buttermilk into the flour mixture until combined.

3

Gather dough into a ball and knead on a lightly floured board for 2 minutes. Then roll dough out into a 3/4-inch-thick slab. Cut into 3-inch triangles with a sharp knife and distribute scones evenly onto the prepared baking sheets. Brush tops with egg white and sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar.

4

Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Remove from the baking sheets and place on cooling racks. Dust tops with powdered sugar; serve warm.

💡 Use cold butter for flakier scones.If you don't have buttermilk, mix 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar with ¾ cup milk and let it sit for 5 minutes as a substitute.Scones are best served fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.You can freeze unbaked scones and bake directly from frozen for a longer-lasting stock of treats.
