Ingredients:
- 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup (65g) granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp (12g) baking powder
- 1/2 tsp (3g) salt
- 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, frozen and cubed
- 3/4 cup (180ml) cold buttermilk
- 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup (75g) rhubarb, finely diced
- 1/2 cup (75g) strawberries, finely diced
- 1 cup (125g) powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp (30ml) heavy cream
- 1/2 tsp (2.5ml) vanilla extract
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a small bowl, toss the finely diced rhubarb and strawberries with a pinch of flour until lightly coated.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the frozen butter cubes and use a pastry cutter or fork to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces remaining.
- Stir in the cold buttermilk and vanilla extract until the dough just begins to come together. Gently fold in the coated fruit mixture, being careful not to overmix.
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface and pat it into a 10-inch circle. Use a knife or bench scraper to cut the circle into 8 equal wedges.
- Place the wedges on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the tops are mahogany-colored and the edges are firm.
- Allow scones to cool for 5 minutes. Whisk together the powdered sugar, heavy cream, and vanilla extract, then drizzle the glaze over the warm scones.
