Blueberry Cobbler Scones
These blueberry cobbler scones are made with tangy buttermilk, topped with a golden cobbler crumble, and finished with a luscious vanilla bean glaze for the ultimate bakery-style treat at home!
Ingredients
For the Scones:
- 2½ cups all purpose flour
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 12 tbsp cold butter grated
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 egg
- 1½ cup frozen blueberries
For the Cobbler Crumble:
- 1 tbsp melted butter
- 4 tbsp all purpose flour
- 3 tbsp brown sugar
For the Vanilla Bean Glaze:
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- ½ tsp vanilla bean paste
- 1-2 tbsp milk depending on desired consistency
Instructions
For the scones:
- Preheat oven to 350℉. In a large mixing bowl, mix together your dry ingredients of 2½ cups flour, 1 tbsp baking powder ½ tsp salt, and 2 tbsp granulated sugar.
- With a cheese grater, grate your cold butter and mix into dry ingredients with your hands until it reaches a mealy texture.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 egg, 1 cup buttermilk and 1 tsp vanilla. Add to the bowl of dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
- Fold in 1½ cups blueberries; you want the dough to be just sticky enough to stick to your hands. Add more buttermilk 1 tbsp at a time if you feel are too dry. Spread into a circle onto a baking sheet and cut into serving sizes, the same way you would a pizza.
- Top with cobbler crumble (see directions below) and bake at 350 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until lightly golden on edges.
For the Cobbler Crumble:
- To prepare the crumble, add 1 tbsp melted butter, 4 tbsp flour and 3 tbsp brown sugar to a small bowl and stir with a fork until crumbly. Use it to top scones before baking.
For the Vanilla Bean Glaze:
- In a small bowl, combine ½ cup of powdered sugar, ½ tsp vanilla bean paste and begin with 1 tbsp of milk. Whisk until smooth, add more water 1 tbsp at a time if too thick. Top scones with glaze once out of oven and have cooled for at least 5 minutes
Sooo good and actually super easy to make!
These are so good! Thanks for sharing the recipe.
Excellent recipe. I had to bake them for 35 mins. But easy to follow with well written instructions.
Wow! These are so good! They were quite messy to make and I think I made them too thick but cooking them a little longer worked. They were so tender and moist with the perfect amount of sweetness.
So delicious- definitely a moist scone. Would start with 1/2 or 3/4 cup buttermilk if you want it a bit drier. The crumble and drizzle are worth the extra steps! Thanks for sharing Hailey!
These we delicious! The flavor was wonderful and they were easy to make.
They are so yummy!!
I am not a fan of scones. Like you said, usually dry crumply bricks. These were soft and delicious. I just drizzled on powder sugar and lemon juice glaze. Oh my! This will be in a regular rotation.
Ok wow, finally got around to making these and they were soo dang good. Big fan!!
Mine needed to bake for about 35 minutes to be finished in the center
Delicious! I’ve been trying to help my husband gain weight, and these are a winner. He ate 2 as soon as they cooled off a bit. He seldom eats 2 of anything. I love your recipes and will continue to keep you as my go-to.
I made the scones today, and the family loved it! Appreciate the link to the video as it helped to understand how the dough should look like. My baking time was 40 min. Thanks for sharing!
your website and recipes have made a huge difference in my mornings. I am an RN in Rual town of Salmon Idaho I made these for the girls at work, and they Loved them! Every woman in the specialty clinic and Hospital came over to have some. One woman even donated fresh Huckleberries for me to make more the next day and bring in.
Keep up the great work you are doing, you’re making a great difference in woman’s lives far and wide. One recipe at a time. Thank you so very much for brightening our day. And ” WE LOVE MILK” too. Leslie .
These blueberry scones were the best scone I’ve ever tasted, moist, buttery, and so easy to make! I did leave the drizzle off, and still were great! 😋
