Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups flour
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup cold butter cubed
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment.
  2. Whisk the flour, sugar, and lemon zest, then cut in the cold butter until crumbly.
  3. Stir in the cream just until a dough forms, then gently fold in the blueberries.

  5. Bake 18 to 20 minutes until golden, then cool before serving.

Notes

Keep the butter cold and handle the dough lightly for flaky scones.
