Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Strawberries and Cream Scones
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and granulated sugar.
- Cut the cold unsalted butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, whole milk, and heavy cream until fully combined, then add to dry ingredients.
- Carefully fold in the fresh strawberries, ensuring even distribution.
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface, shape it into an 8-inch circle about 1-inch thick.
- Cut the dough into 8 wedges and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.
- Prepare the egg wash and brush the tops of each wedge, then sprinkle sugar on top.
- Bake for approximately 18 minutes, until light golden brown and firm to the touch.
- Cool the scones on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then prepare the glaze by mixing heavy cream, confectioners' sugar, vanilla extract, and salt.
- Drizzle the glaze over the warm scones and serve.
