Easy Blueberry Almond Scones image

Inspired by Lalalous's recipe #371363, this simple scone recipe is so easy, you can make it in the morning before work! Raspberries work well, too - use almond extract if you're using rapberries! I use frozen berries (the individually frozen kind, not the kind in syrup) for these, and I like my berries, so my scoop of berries is more like a heaping 1/2 cup!

Time 20m

Yield 4 Scones, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup flour
1/4 cup oats
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon oil
1/3 cup blueberries
2 tablespoons sugar (use more if you like your scones sweet)
1 teaspoon vanilla powder or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup sliced almonds
1/3-1/2 cup milk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 220°C/425°F.
  • In a bowl mix together flour, oats, baking powder, sugar and vanilla powder (if using vanilla extract, add with milk). Add oil and stir to combine.
  • Fold in blueberries and almonds.
  • Add milk (and vanilla extract) and stir to combine. If it is too sticky add more flour, if it is too dry add some more milk.
  • Pat out dough on a floured surface and cut or shape scones of desired size. I often shape dough into a large circle, and cut into triangles for a traditional shape.
  • Place on a paper-lined baking sheet and bake for about 15 minutes until baked through and golden brown.
