I have no book review this week because I was all last minute with this post. Nice weather kept me from doing stuff inside yesterday. Except for cooking and, ah hem, baking ... blackberry lime scones.
No words this evening as my bed is beckoning. Night night!
BLACKBERRY LIME SCONES
2 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 ounces or 1 stick cold butter
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons milk
1 egg
2 teaspoons lime zest
1 cup blackberries
glaze
2 tablespoons lime juice
1/2 cup to 1 cup confectioners sugar
Blend together the dry ingredients, including the lime zest. I like to use my processor for this but its not necessary. You can use a bowl and a pastry blender or a fork. Blend in the cold butter until it turns the flour kind of mealy. In a separate bowl stir together the wet ingredients. Stir the wet into the dry just until combined. Spoon into a scone maker or even ramekins. You can also pat into a round and cut into 8 pieces. Bake at 400° for about 20 minutes.
Remove from pan after cooling for 5 minutes. Drizzle glaze over top.
