Ingredients
- 800g (6 cups or 28 oz) flour
- 6 teaspoons baking powder
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 300g (10.5oz) chilled butter
- 1 3/4 cups cold milk
- 1/2 cup lemon curd
- 1 ½ cups blueberries (can use frozen)
- 2 cups icing sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Method
Blueberry, Lemon Curd Scones
Preheat the oven to 200 C.
Sift the flour, baking powder and sugar into a large bowl and rub in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients and pour in the milk , quickly mixing with a knife to make a soft dough.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and roll into a rectangle 40 x 50cm. Cut the rectangle in half.
Spread one surface with lemon curd and sprinkle with blueberries, place the second half on top. Cut into 15 pieces and place on a cold baking tray.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden.
Mix the icing sugar, vanilla and enough water to make a firm icing. Ice scones when slightly warm.
