Lemon Glazed Mixed Berry Scones


Scones have become one of my favorite things! They are pretty quick to make on a Saturday morning and these berry scones were great.  This recipe is adapted from A Latte Food.

Scones
2 1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter (cold and cubed)
1 egg
1/3 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup sour cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup blueberries
1/2 cup raspberries

Glaze
2-3 tbsp lemon juice
1 cup powdered sugar

Heat oven to 400 and line a sheet pan with parchment paper. In a bowl combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut the butter into the flour mixture until it looks like coarse sand. In a separate bowl whisk together the heavy cream, sour cream, egg and vanilla extract. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry until just combined. Fold in the berries. On a well floured surface shape the dough into a square then cut the square into four small squares then cut each square diagonally into two triangles.  Place on the baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool. In a small bowl whisk together the lemon juice and powdered sugar until it is the desired constantly.  Drizzle over the scones and serve.
