Ingredients
The following ingredients have 16 Servings
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup cake flour
- 2 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/4 cup sugar (granulated)
- 2 teaspoon salt
- 8 ounce butter (cut in small pieces (2 sticks))
- 2 cups blueberries
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 2 large egg (plus 1 for egg wash)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg (beaten, for egg wash)
Instruction
- Preheat oven to 375 F degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl add the all purpose flour and cake flour. To it add the baking powder, sugar and salt. Mix it all together. Using a pastry blender or a fork, cut in the butter in the flour until it resembles small peas.
- Add the blueberries and the chocolate chips to the flour mixture and toss them around.
- In another small bowl mix the buttermilk with the two eggs and vanilla extract.
- Pour the buttermilk mixture over the flour mixture and slightly mix with a fork. Turn the dough over onto a floured surface and gently knead until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
- Cut the dough in half and roll each half into a 8 inch disc that's about 1 inch in thickness. Cut the disc into 8 triangles, like a pizza. Repeat with other half.
- Place the scones onto the prepared baking sheet. Brush the triangles with the egg wash and sprinkle with additional sugar if desired.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until the scones are golden brown.
