RECIPE:
2 cups (250g) flour (spoon & leveled), plus more for hands and work surface
1/2 cup (100g) sugar substitute- I used Lakanto. To order: https://bit.ly/3cRLTbg
15% off with the code- JENNSWWJOURNEY
2 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick; 115g) light butter - frozen
1/2 cup (120ml) whole milk
1 large egg
1 and 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 heaping cup (180g) fresh or frozen blueberries (do not thaw)
Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a large bowl. Grate the frozen butter using a box grater. Add it to the flour mixture and combine with a pastry cutter, two forks, or your fingers until the mixture comes together in pea-sized crumbs. See video above for a closer look at the texture. Place in the refrigerator or freezer as you mix the wet ingredients together.
Whisk 1/2 cup whole milk, the egg, and vanilla extract together in a small bowl. Drizzle over the flour mixture, add the blueberries, then mix together until everything appears moistened.
Pour onto the counter and, with floured hands, work dough into a ball as best you can. Dough will be sticky. If it’s too sticky, add a little more flour. If it seems too dry, add 1-2 more Tablespoons milk. Press into an 8-inch disc and, with a sharp knife or bench scraper, cut into 8 wedges.
Place scones on a plate or lined baking sheet (if your fridge has space!) and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400°F (204°C).
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat. After refrigerating, arrange scones 2-3 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet(s).
Bake for 22-25 minutes or until golden brown around the edges and lightly browned on top. Remove from the oven and cool for a few minutes.
Leftover scones keep well at room temperature for 2 days or in the refrigerator for 5 days.
