Ingredients
 
 

FOR THE SCONES

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup cream whole, heavy or whipping (120 grams)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar (lightly packed) (45 grams)
  • 2 1/4 cups all purpose flour (285 grams)
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1/2 cup butter (cold and cut into small pieces) (105 grams)
  • 1 cup strawberries (frozen & sliced) (140 grams)

VANILLA GLAZE

  • 1 cup icing / powdered sugar (120 grams)
  • 1 tablespoon milk (more or less)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat oven to 375F (190C). Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • On medium speed beat together the eggs for one minute then add the cream, vanilla and sugar, beat jut until combined.
  • In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt, add the butter, combine to form coarse crumbs. Make a well in the centre and add the egg mixture and stir just until combined 16-17 stirs only.
  • Turn the dough onto a lightly floured flat surface and gently fold 3-4 times to combine, pat the dough into a rectangle (11 x 8.5 inches / 30 x 11 cm) with the palm of your hand. Top with the frozen strawberries, fold the dough over in three (like an envelope).
  • Then pat the dough gently into an 8 inch (20 cm) circle and cut into 8 triangles, place them about 1/2 inch apart on the prepared cookie sheet. Brush with a little milk and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden. Let cool completely before drizzling with the vanilla glaze.

VANILLA GLAZE

  • In a small bowl whisk together until smooth the icing/powdered sugar, milk and vanilla. Add more milk if too thick.

Notes

These Strawberry Scones will last about 1-2 days stored in an airtight container at room temperature. I suggest storing them in the fridge, this way they will last about a week.
You can also freeze the scones. Let them cool, then store them in an airtight container or freezer bag and place them in the freezer. They will last up to 3 months.
