Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 0.25 teaspoons salt
  • 0.5 cups unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 0.75 cups full-fat heavy cream
  • 1 unit large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 0.5 cups apricot jam
  • 1 tablespoon extra heavy cream

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the cold, cubed butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a separate small bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup heavy cream, the egg, and the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently mix until a soft dough forms. Avoid overmixing.

Step 6

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times to bring it together. Pat it into a 1-inch-thick circle.

Step 7

Using a sharp knife or a biscuit cutter, divide the dough into 8 equal wedges or rounds and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.

Step 8

Brush the tops of the scones with the extra tablespoon of heavy cream to encourage browning during baking.

Step 9

Bake for 14-16 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown on top and cooked through.

Step 10

Let the scones cool slightly before serving. Pair with a generous spread of apricot jam and enjoy!
