Fluffy and light, extra lemony scones drizzled with the most perfect fresh strawberry glaze. These Lemon Scones with Strawberry Glaze are a perfect pick-me-up.
Preheat your oven to 400 F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
With your mixer, combine the flour, butter, sugar, baking powder and salt until it resembles wet sand.
In a large bowl, whisk together the 3/4 cup of cream, 2 eggs, lemon zest and vanilla extract.
Add the cream mixture to the flour mixture until just incorporated.
Take the dough out of the bowl and form into a flat disc about 8 inches across and 1 1/2 inches thick. Using a large knife, cut into 8 wedges and transfer to the parchment paper.
Make an egg wash with an egg and the 3 tablespoons of cream and brush the tops. Sprinkle a generous amount of sugar.
Bake for 40-50 minutes until the tops are golden brown.
Strawberry Glaze
In a food processor combine all ingredients into the glaze. Add more sugar for a thicker glaze. Drizzle on top of scones.
