How to make the Blueberry Scones
- Prep: Preheat oven to 425F with the rack in the middle. Prepare and set aside a 12"x18" baking sheet. Measure out all of the ingredients.
- Wet ingr: Whisk all wet ingredients (1/2 cup milk, 1/2 cup sour cream, 1 tsp vanilla extract) together until smooth. Refrigerate.
- Dry ingr: In a large bowl whisk together all dry ingredients ( 2 cups flour, 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 tsp salt, 2 tsp baking powder, 1/4 tsp baking soda).
- Combine: Grate 8 tbsp frozen butter on a large holed box grater right into the flour mixture and toss together to coat the butter in flour. Add the cold wet ingredients and stir just until barely holds together.
- Shape: Dump the dough out onto your working surface and continue pressing the dough together until it holds shape, then fold several times to form a dough. Do not overwork it or the scones will be tough. Using the rolling pin, roll the dough into a rectangle (16" x 12") flouring the surface and the pin as needed.Spread the berries all across the surface and press them in with the palms of your hands. Now fold or roll tightly into a log. Cut the log into 12 triangle pieces (for smaller scones) or 8 triangles (for regular, large size) and transfer to a 12"x18" baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
