Description

These lightly sweetened, biscuit-like scones are full of juicy blueberries. The white chocolate balances the bright flavor of the blueberries and makes these scones extra special!

Ingredients

  • 2-¼ cups Flour, Sifted
  • 2 Tablespoons Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ cups Sugar
  • ¼ cups Chilled, Unsalted Butter
  • 1 cup Blueberries
  • ½ cups White Chocolate Chips
  • 1 whole Lemon, Zested
  • ¼ teaspoons Nutmeg (fresh Tastes The Best!)
  • ¾ cups Buttermilk PLUS 2 Tablespoons

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 375F.

Combine flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.

Cut the butter into small cubes, then mix into flour mixture using a pastry cutter or two knives.

Toss in blueberries, white chocolate, lemon zest, and nutmeg.

Add buttermilk and stir to combine, but don’t overdo it!

Drop a couple of tablespoons of dough per scone onto onto a baking sheet and press lightly. This should form a 2 1/2 inch circle. Sprinkle each scone with sugar and bake for 10 minutes or until golden brown.

These are awesome served slightly warm, so the white chocolate is still melted!

I think it is supposed to be baking powder. If you read the preparation instructions, it says to combine flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.

Just a typo on top that was fixed in the bottom! I would try them again with baking powder

I’d love to try these as there is a place near us that sells Saskatoon Berry White Chocolate scones (like a blueberry). Any suggestions on how much baking soda there should be? Or maybe is it meant to be baking powder?

I also made these (without first reading the reviews), and they were not good at all. I agree about the amount of baking soda…I wondered at the amount as I was making them and it was confirmed when I tasted them. I threw the whole batch away. So sad…

Hmm… I really can’t imagine what went wrong that would give it a bad taste. Did you use self-rising flour? ‘Cause that might do it.

Sorry they didn’t work out for you!

I tried this recipe tonight with high hopes – but it did not turn out good. I’m wondering about the amount of baking soda – it is really strong – bad taste.

These are delicious!! I made them several times and then adapted the recipe to make peach/white chocolate ones with fresh peaches. I added a little extra sugar to the peach as they are tart! Instead of using the drop method I spread the dough on the counter (heavily dusted with flour) using flour on top just enough to get a nice rectangle formed. I then dusted the entire rectangle with sugar, cut in pieces, moved to cookie sheet and baked for 25 minutes!
