Strawberry Lemon Glazed Scones 🍓🍋🍓

This was my first time making these and they turned out really good. I used @/cheysingh recipe on tiktok. Note: I did change it up a bit.

Ingredients:

- 1 cup of milk of your choice

- 1/3 cup granulated sugar or sugar alternative

- 3 cups all-purpose flour

- 2 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

- 12 tbsp of cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces or freeze a stick of butter for 1 hour and shred it.

- Zest of 1 lemon (optional)

- 1-2 cups of diced strawberries.

For the glaze:

- 1 cup powdered sugar

- 2-3 tbsp fresh lemon juice

- 1 tsp of vanilla extract

Instructions:

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

2. Combine the flour and baking powder and stir. Then add the cold pieces of butter to the dry ingredients, along with the diced strawberries.

3. In a separate bowl, combine the milk and sugar and stir. Then pour these wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it gently a few times until it comes together.

5. Pat the dough into a circle. Use a knife to cut the circle into 8 wedges.

6. Place the scones on a prepared baking sheet Brush the scones with a egg wash before baking to give them a golden brown, shiny finish. (Optional)

7. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until they are golden brown. (I baked mine for an additional 5 minutes)

8. While the scones are cooling, make the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until smooth. Lemon zest is optional.

9. Once the scones have cooled slightly, drizzle the glaze over the top. Allow the glaze to set for a few minutes before serving.
