Advertising

Ingredients

  • Scones:
    • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
    • ¼ cup granulated sugar
    • 1 ¼ teaspoons baking powder
    • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
    • ¼ teaspoon salt
    • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold
    • ½ cup buttermilk
    • ½ cup diced strawberries
  • Glaze:
    •  ¼ cup powdered sugar
    •  1-2 tablespoon heavy whipping cream

Instructions

  1. Sift flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium mixing bowl.
  2. Cut cold butter into small chunks (½ tablespoon-size pieces) and add to the dry ingredients.
  3. Use a pastry blender or two forks to cut the butter into the flour mixture until the butter is broken down into pea-size pieces. 
  4. Add buttermilk and stir to combine into a rough mixture. 
  5. Add the strawberries into the scone mixture and gently stir to distribute the strawberries evenly without squishing them. 
  6. Form the dough into a circle and pat out until it is only ¾” thick. 
  7. Score the dough lightly into wedges and lift carefully into the greased basket of the air fryer. (A greased air fryer basket is preferable to using parchment paper – see note below). 
  8. Cook in the air fryer at 350°F for 15 minutes or until the scone is cooked all the way through.
  9. Whisk together glaze ingredients, adjusting the amount of cream until desired consistency is reached.
  10. Drizzle glaze over scones and allow to set. 
  11. Plate, serve, and enjoy!
