INGREDIENTS
- 2 tbsp lemon zest
- 1/2 cup white granulated sugar
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp poppy seeds
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tbsp lemon juice (about 1/2 of a lemon)
- 8 tbsp unsalted butter, cubed
- 2 tbsp raw sugar (for sprinkling)
For the glaze:
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Have a parchment-lined baking sheet ready and set it aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the lemon zest and sugar. Work the two together until the mixture resembles wet sand, 1 minute. Add the flour, salt, baking powder, and poppy seeds, and mix together. Add the cold pieces of cubed butter and toss with the flour mixture. Press pieces of butter between thumb and forefinger until the butter is worked into the flour with irregularly-sized pieces no bigger than a pea.
- In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk, egg, and lemon juice. Beat until the egg is smooth, then add it to the dry ingredients. Using a fork, mix the scones together to form a wet and shaggy dough.
- Pour the shaggy dough onto a well-floured surface and knead it a few times until it comes together as a cohesive dough. Pat the dough into a 6-inch round disk. Cut the disk into eight equal triangles and place each scone on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush the tops of the scones with buttermilk and sprinkle with the raw sugar.
- Place the scones in the preheated 400℉ oven and bake until they are golden on top, 20-25 minutes. Once baked, remove the scones from the oven and cool.
- In a small bowl, combine the powdered sugar and lemon juice. Whisk until smooth. Once the scones are cooled, drizzle the tops with the glaze and serve.

Easy Scones Recipe
This Delicious and Rich Quick Bread, that Softly melts in your mouth is a must try.
Ingredients;
* 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (440g)
* 1 ½ tablespoons baking powder(20g)
* 1 ½- 2 tablespoons sugar(35g) (optional)
* 1/2 teaspoons Salt
* 1 1/2 sticks, unsalted butter chilled (180g)
* 1 cup chilled buttermilk (240ml)
* 1 small egg (optional)+ 1 more for brushing ????
Directions;
Preheat oven to 190•C and ready your baking tray lined with parchment paper.
1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt).
2. For the wet ingredients, crack egg into a separate bowl, whisk and gradually mix in buttermilk
3. Using a box grater, grate the frozen butter. Try to do this as quickly as possible so the butter does not become soft.
4. Now add the butter into the flour. Mix and ensure the butter distributes evenly. The mixture should look like a soft bread crumbs
5. Gradually mix in the wet ingredients. Fold in to form a sticky dough. Please, be careful not to over work the dough to avoid ending up with tough scones.
6. Flour a working surface and transfer the dough on to it.
7. Dust your hands with some flour and gently pat down dough to about 1 inch thick. Cut using a cookie cutter. You may also use a round glass or plastic cup if you do not have the cookie cutter. Place on prepared baking tray lined with parchment paper.
8. Egg wash and bake for 12-15minutes or until it’s golden brown.
Note: if you’re making your own buttermilk, I will advice you make it earlier, so you’re able to chill it before use. Leave it out on a counter after adding the lemon juice to sit for about 15minutes. Then refrigerate for use when your ready. It can last up to 5days in the refrigerator.
