Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, sugar, baking powder, lemon zest, and culinary lavender.
  3. Grate cold unsalted butter into the dry ingredients and mix until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk heavy cream and egg, then fold into the dry ingredients until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in the blackberries, ensuring they remain intact for flavorful pockets within the scones.
  6. Shape the dough into an 8-inch disc about 1.5 inches thick and cut into 8 wedges.
  7. Brush the tops with cream or milk and bake for 20-25 minutes until lightly browned.
  8. Allow scones to cool on the tray, then whisk together powdered sugar, lemon juice, melted butter, and milk until smooth.
  9. Drizzle glaze over the cooled scones and let it set before serving.
