Ingredients - Serves 8
- Lemon juice - 2 tablespoons, for glaze
- Powdered sugar - 1/2 cup, for glaze
- Vanilla extract - 1 teaspoon
- Egg - 1 large
- Whole milk - 1/2 cup
- Fresh blueberries - 1 cup

Let's Get Started
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the cold, cubed butter and use your fingers to work it into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the blueberries.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Gradually add this to the flour mixture, stirring until just combined.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it a few times to bring it together.
- Pat the dough into a round disc, about 1-inch thick, and cut it into 8 wedges.
- Place the scones onto a baking sheet and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
- While the scones are baking, make the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar and lemon juice.
- Once the scones have cooled slightly, drizzle them with the glaze.
