TIPS AND TRICKS TO MAKE PERFECT SCONES
- Frozen butter: When you cut the frozen butter into the dry ingredients you will create crumbs. These crumbs are essential to have scones with a flaky center while keeping the edges crumbly and crisp.
- Donāt over-work scone dough: Itās important to not overwork the dough and never roll it too thin, doing so will make the scone lose the flaky, moist, and delicious crumbly texture.
- Refrigerate before baking: Keeping scone dough as cold as possible prevents over-spreading so donāt skip this step, please.
LEMON GLAZE FOR SCONES
This lemon glaze is sweet and tangy! Itās made with just two ingredients: confectioners’ sugar and fresh lemon juice. Itās the perfect pair for your blueberry scones.
STORING EGGLESS SCONES
