Easy Blueberry Scones: delicious recipe using fresh blueberries, with the perfect sugar topping. Perfect for breakfast or with a cup of tea.

These blueberry scones are the perfect easy recipe. Made with fresh blueberries, they’re a perfect tea time or breakfast treat.

I noticed blueberries were on sale this week, and it reminded me of a favourite summer treat. There’s a lovely farm near our house that has a pick-your-own section of berries and veggies, and a really nice farm shop with more produce, ice cream, and a little bakery. My husband loves to get a scone or two when we’re there and have it as a breakfast treat.

Easy Blueberry Scones

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 18 minutes

Total Time 33 minutes

Ingredients

2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 cups blueberries
1/2 cup half and half
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
3 tbsp coarse sugar

Instructions

Combine the dry ingredients -flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl.
Cut the butter into small pieces and cut into the dry ingredients with a pastry cutter, until the mixture resembles oatmeal.
Wash blueberries, and stir into flour mixture.
In another bowl, stir together the wet ingredients -half and half, egg and vanilla.
Add the wet to the dry ingredients and combine into a dough. Split the dough in half and form each into a circle, patting it to about 3/4 inch thick. Cut each circle into 6 pieces, for a total of 12 all together. Brush the dough with a little extra cream, and then sprinkle with coarse sugar.
Spread the scones out and bake on a cookie sheet at 375 degrees for about 18 min. until golden brown.
