Ingredients

The Instructions⁠:⁠

  1. Cut butter up into chunks, place on a plate, and put in the freezer for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  2. Place butter and dry ingredients into a food processer and pulse until the butter is in small, pea-sized chunks.
  3. Add in sourdough starter, vanilla, and vanilla extract. If the dough is dry, add 1-2 tbs of cold milk or water. Start with 1 tbs and determine if it needs more. Pulse until it begins to form a ball.
  4. Add the dough to bowl and fold in blueberries and lemon zest (the blueberries may pop which is okay).
  5. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  6. Place the dough on a piece of parchment paper. Roll it out on the sheet into a square about 1-2 inches thick.
  7. Cut scones into 8 even triangles then place onto a lined baking sheet with space between each.
  8. Create an egg wash by cracking an egg into a small bowl and whisking it thoroughly. Brush egg wash onto the top of each scone and sprinkle with sugar on top.
  9. Place scones in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes.
