Coffee House Strawberry Scones
 
Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 TB baking powder
  • ¾ tsp. salt
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • Zest of one orange
  • 1¼ cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup sliced strawberries
  • 1½ tsp. Turbinado sugar (optional)
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 450 and line a baking sheet with a Silpat liner or parchment paper.
  2. Whisk the dry ingredients together in a medium-sized bowl.
  3. Add the orange zest and the sliced strawberries. Gently toss the strawberries until they are coated in flour.
  4. Pour the cream in all at once and stir with a fork until the dough comes together. It will be wet and sticky.
  5. Scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet with a large spoon, making six scones.
  6. Sprinkle ¼ tsp. of Turbinado sugar on the top of each scone.
  7. Bake until firm and golden brown, about 15 minutes.
  8. Cool on a wire rack. Serve warm.
