ROCK’S RECIPES: Huckleberry Scones

By Pugfound

This is a great scone with lots of fresh summer flavor!

Good along with some black cherry jam or jelly and butter.

Ingredients:

2 cups all-purpose flour

3 tablespoons white sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

6 tablespoons butter

2 tablespoons lemon juice

2 eggs, beaten

1/3 cup half and half cream

3/4 teaspoon lemon zest

3/4 cup fresh huckleberries

1 cup powdered sugar

1/4 cup lemon juice

1/4 teaspoon lemon zest

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Grease a baking sheet.

Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.

Using a pastry blender, cut in butter and lemon juice until evenly mixed and slightly crumbly.

Whisk together the eggs and half and half in a small bowl; add 3/4 teaspoons lemon zest with the egg mixture to flour mixture, and mix gently just until well blended and forming a dough.

Fold in the huckleberries.

Divide dough in half, and on a floured surface, shape each half into a ball, then flatten slightly.

Cut each round into six wedges; place on prepared baking sheet.

Bake in the preheated oven until tops are golden brown, about 12 minutes.

Whisk together powdered sugar and lemon juice to make a glaze.

Drizzle glaze on cooled scones.

Sprinkle with remaining lemon zest for garnish.
