Berry Oatmeal Scones Recipes

BLUEBERRY OAT SCONES

Steps:

• Position 1 rack in top third and 1 rack in bottom third of oven and preheat to 350°F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Combine flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and coarse salt in processor; blend 5 seconds. Add butter. Using on/off turns, blend until mixture resembles coarse meal. Transfer mixture to large bowl. Add 1 cup oats and blueberries; stir to blend evenly.
• Stir half and half and vanilla in small bowl. Gradually add to flour mixture, tossing until dough just comes together (dough will be very moist).
• Using 1/2-cup measuring cup for each scone, drop dough in mounds onto prepared baking sheets, spacing 3 inches apart. Sprinkle tops with remaining 3 tablespoons oats, then raw sugar.
• Bake 15 minutes. Reverse sheets and continue baking until scones are golden and tester inserted into center from side comes out clean, about 12 minutes longer. Transfer scones to rack and cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature.
• *Also called turbinado or demerara sugar; available at most supermarkets and at natural foods stores.

BLUEBERRY BANANA SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• In large bowl, whisk together flours, sugar, baking powder and soda, ginger and salt. Add cold butter and cut in with a pastry blender until mixture resembles wet sand.
• Mix together the mashed banana and sour cream in a separate bowl. Add to the butter and flour mixture and stir gently with a wooden spoon.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and sprinkle the top with the frozen blueberries and a light sprinkle of flour. Gently knead the dough until it comes together and blueberries are mixed in. Dough will be crumbly. Use a bit more flour if too sticky.
• Use a light hand and press into a 7-inch disk. Gently cut into 8 wedges with a pizza cutter.
• Place cut scones evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, rotating pan once during baking time, until scones are lightly golden.

THE BEST GLAZED MIXED BERRY SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F. Line a baking sheet with a Silpat or parchment; set aside.
• In a large bowl, add 2 cups flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, optional salt, and whisk to combine.
• Add the butter, and with a pastry cutter or two forks, cut the butter in. You can use a food processor, but I find not having to wash it is a big time-saver. I smoosh the butter with forks and when it's the size of large marbles, I use my hands and knead it in. It will feel like semi-wet, cool sand. Some larger pea-sized butter clumps are okay; set bowl aside.
• In a small bowl, add the egg, sour cream, vanilla, and whisk to combine until smooth.
• Pour wet mixture over dry, and fold until just combined with a soft-tipped spatula; don't overmix or scones will be tough. Dough will be wet and shaggy.
• Fold in the berries and optional zest.
• Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons flour over a Silpat or clean work surface and lightly coat hands.
• Turn dough out onto surface and knead it into a 8-inch round, approximately. Dough is very moist, wet, sticky, and tacky, but if it's being too stubborn or too wet to come together, sprinkle with flour 1 tablespoon at a time until you get it to come together and into a round.
• With a large knife, slice round into 8 equal-sized wedges.
• Using a flat spatula or pie turner, transfer wedges to prepared baking sheet spaced at least 2-inches apart. Do not crowd because scones puff and spread while baking. Tip - try to make sure there are no exposed berries touching the baking sheet because they'll be prone to burning.
• Optionally, sprinkle each wedge with a generous pinch of turbinado sugar, about 1 teaspoon each.
• Bake for about 18 minutes, or until scones are very lightly golden and cooked through. 18 minutes in my oven with frozen fruit is perfect, but if using fresh fruit, baking time will likely be reduced. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter. Because they're baking in quite a hot oven, watch them closely starting after about 15 minutes to ensure the bottoms aren't getting too browned.
• Allow scones to cool on baking tray for about 5 minutes before removing and transferring to a rack to finish cooling. While the scones cool, make the glaze.
• In a small bowl, combine the confectioners' sugar and cream (or citrus juice).
• Whisk together until smooth. Depending on desired consistency, you may need to play with the cream and sugar ratios slightly.
• Evenly drizzle the glaze over the scones before serving.

MY FAVORITE BLUEBERRY SCONES

Steps:

• Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a large bowl. Grate the frozen butter using a box grater. Add it to the flour mixture and combine with a pastry cutter, two forks, or your fingers until the mixture comes together in pea-sized crumbs. See video above for a closer look at the texture. Place in the refrigerator or freezer as you mix the wet ingredients together.
• Whisk 1/2 cup heavy cream, the egg, and vanilla extract together in a small bowl. Drizzle over the flour mixture, add the blueberries, then mix together until everything appears moistened.
• Pour onto the counter and, with floured hands, work dough into a ball as best you can. Dough will be sticky. If it's too sticky, add a little more flour. If it seems too dry, add 1-2 more Tablespoons heavy cream. Press into an 8-inch disc and, with a sharp knife or bench scraper, cut into 8 wedges.
• Brush scones with remaining heavy cream and for extra crunch, sprinkle with coarse sugar. (You can do this before or after refrigerating in the next step.)
• Place scones on a plate or lined baking sheet (if your fridge has space!) and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400°F (204°C).
• Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat. After refrigerating, arrange scones 2-3 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet(s).
