Sam here from Sugar Spun Run with a buttery, summery treat for you. I made quick work of my own favorite berries by working them into a slightly sweetened, buttery, flaky, scone recipe. Not only are they juicy, ripe, and in their prime right now, they also look light brightly colored gems nestled into these summer berry scones. One thing that I always like to stress when making my scones is the importance of using cold butter. I usually will place my sticks of butter in the freezer before I’m ready to begin baking, and then I’ll use a box grater to actually grate the cold butter. OK to briefly whip out an electric mixer to start to bring things together, or even to use your hands to work the dough together. Don’t over-work it, though, because this drier dough is exactly what gives us these nice, buttery, flaky layers in our summer berry scones.
