Brenda's Blackberry Scones step by step
- About 2 hours before making the scones, scatter the berries or fruit on a cookie sheet and put in freezer. (If large berries cut in half).
- Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, and drop in the cubed butter. Put the bowl in the freezer and leave it there for 30 minutes..
- Adjust the oven rack to the middle position and preheat the oven to 375°F. Line regular or jumbo cupcake tins and set aside..
- Using a pastry cutter or two knives, work the chilled ingredients together in the bowl until the butter cubes are the size of peas..
- Make a well in the center. Combine the rum, vanilla and buttermilk in a separate bowl, and pour the mixture into the well. Mix the ingredients with a wooden spoon to form a shaggy, slightly crumbly mass..
- Add the frozen fruit and gently mix them in, trying not to crush them..
- Scoop a small spoonful into your hand and press it into a tall, fat puck shape and put it in the prepared muffin papers..
- Sprinkle the tops of the scones with the cane sugar..
- Bake for 15 minutes or until they are golden brown around the sides but still tender in the middle..
- Transfer the scones to a cooling rack and let them cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Cool completely before storing in a loosely covered container. Store for up to three days, because of the fruit they will mold quickly, so eat them fast! :-).
