Glazed Blackberry Lime Scones at The Little Shop of Olive Oils

Glazed Blackberry Lime Scones

Ingredients:

For the Scones:

  • 2 cups of all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ cup cold heavy cream
  • 3 tbsp Persian Lime Olive Oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp Blackberry Ginger Balsamic
  • 1 cup fresh blackberries
  • Zest of 1 lime

For the Glaze:

Instructions:

  • Preheat oven to 400ºF (200ºC). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together heavy cream, Persian Lime Olive Oil, egg, vanilla extract, and Blackberry Ginger Balsamic.
  • Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Gently fold in the blackberries and lime zest, being careful not to crush the berries too much.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and pat into a 1-inch-thick circle. Cut into 8 wedges and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake for 16-18 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool slightly before glazing.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, lime juice, and Blackberry Ginger Balsamic until smooth. Drizzle over the warm scones and sprinkle with extra lime zest.
  • Serve warm with your favorite tea or coffee. These scones are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an air-tight container for up to 2 days.
