Delicious flaky scones filled with fresh strawberries and topped with a creamy glaze.

What you'll need:

For the scones:

  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 Tbsp baking powder
  • 3 Tbsp sugar
  • 6 Tbsp salted butter, cubed
  • 10-12 small strawberries, diced
  • 3/4 cup half & half

For the glaze:

  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup half & half
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla

Preheat oven to 425 F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.  Combine flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Cut in butter to flour with a pastry blender until mixture is small crumbs. Add strawberries and gently toss into mixture until strawberries are evenly coated. Fold in half & half until all mixture comes together. Flatten dough into a 1-inch think rectangle on a floured surface. Cut flattened dough into six squares. Cut each square into two triangles. Place cut scones onto baking sheet with parchment paper. Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden. Remove scones from baking sheet and place on cooling rack with sheet of parchment underneath.

In a small bowl mix together powdered sugar, vanilla and half & half until smooth. Consistency should be a perfect drizzle. Use whisk or spoon to drizzle glaze on scones. Enjoy!
