- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 8 tbsp butter (cold)
- 1 tsp lime zest
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup frozen blueberries
Lime glaze
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp cold milk
- 1/4 tsp lime zest
Preheat oven to 375°F
In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Cube a stick of cold butter and then mix it into the dry ingredients with a pastry cutter. Finish mixing in the butter using your hands until it becomes like damp sand consistency.
In a small bowl mix together your sour cream, lime zest, egg, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix with a rubber spatula until incorporated into a dough. Fold in the blueberries gently.
Dust a cutting board with flour and then pat your dough out into a rectangle. Cut it lengthwise and then again widthwise making 6 squares. Finally, cut each square diagonally making 12 triangles.
Place onto a greased baking sheet and bake for 15-17 minutes. Once they are lightly golden brown remove them and let cool for 10 minutes.
Lime glaze
In a small bowl, whisk together your powdered sugar, milk, and lime zest until it becomes creamy. Add it to a sandwich baggie, cut the corner of the bag, and drizzle over the scones.
