Blueberry Scones Recipe

Why These Scones Will Steal Your Heart

Let’s be real—most scones are dry, crumbly afterthoughts. But not these. Imagine tender, buttery pastry with creamy goat cheese, juicy blueberries, and a hint of fresh basil. It’s like your brunch dreams decided to throw a party.

I first made these for a lazy Sunday garden brunch, and my friends still beg for the recipe. They’re perfect for impressing guests or treating yourself with a fancy coffee.

Ingredients for Blueberry Scones Recipe

  • 1/25 Cup Cold Butter

Directions: Blueberry Scones Recipe

Step-by-Step: Foolproof Scone Success

  • STEP 1.Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Toss in the cold butter, then smush it with your fingers until it looks like crumbs. (Pro tip: Work fast so the butter stays cold—flaky scones depend on it!)
  • STEP 1.Gently mix in goat cheese, blueberries, and basil. Drizzle buttermilk over everything and stir just until combined. Overmixing = tough scones, and nobody wants that.
  • STEP 2.Pat the dough into a circle on a floured surface. Cut into 8 wedges (like a pizza!), then bake at 400°F for 18-20 minutes until golden. Your kitchen will smell insane.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use dried basil or frozen blueberries?

Fresh basil is best, but in a pinch, ½ tsp dried basil works. Frozen blueberries? Toss them in flour first to prevent bleeding.

Why did my scones spread flat?

Butter was too warm! Chill the dough for 15 minutes before baking if your kitchen’s hot.

Can I make these ahead?

Yes! Freeze unbaked scones, then bake straight from frozen (add 2-3 extra minutes).
