Instructions
Preheat oven to 350℉.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
3 cups all-purpose flour,
⅔ cups sugar,
4 teaspoons baking powder,
¼ teaspoon salt
Use a pastry cutter or two forks to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until crumbly.
1 cup cold unsalted butter
Zest the lemons and finely mince the rosemary leaves.
2 medium lemons,
leaves from 2 rosemary sprigs
In a small bowl (or a 2 cup measuring cup) whisk together cream, egg, half of the lemon zest and half of the rosemary.
1 cup heavy cream,
1 large egg
Drizzle the cream mixture over the dry ingredients and stir gently just until combined. Press the mixture into a ball.
On a floured board press dough into a long rectangle about ½ inch thick.
Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife cut into 12 rectangles, then cut those rectangles in half to form 24 triangles.
Transfer to a baking sheet and bake for 18 minutes until just turning brown. Remove scones to a cooling rack.
Lemon Rosemary Glaze
In a medium bowl, combine powdered sugar, the juice of one lemon, and the remaining lemon zest rosemary. Thin with milk as needed.
5 cups powdered sugar,
½ cup milk
When scones are cooled dunk in the glaze to cover completely and place on a cooling rack until glaze is set.
