Blueberry Cookie / Scone Recipe

This week I decided to bake something new and colorful. My husband LOVES blueberries so decided to make my own cookie dough with blueberries and a hint of flavor (yum!). Not only are these delicious they are fun to make.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees

• 2 cups of flour.  ( I use King Arthur Unbleached Flour )
• 2 teaspoons of baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt
• 1 stick or 1/2 cup of unsalted butter ( You will want to soften your butter )
• 1/2 cup of sugar
• 1/2 cup of brown sugar
• 1 egg yoke ( I use cage free brown organic eggs ONLY )
• 1/3 cup of whole milk
• 1 teaspoon of almond extract
• 2 teaspoon of lemon zest or 2 teaspoon of orange zest (optional)
• 1 cup of thawed and drained blueberries.

Now, when you have all of your ingredients.  In one bowl combine the flour, baking powder and salt.

In another bowl combine together your butter and sugars using a mixer. Add your egg then your milk, almond extract and whichever zest you perfer.

Combine the dry ingredients into the wet. Add blueberries.

On your cookie sheet spread olive oil with a napkin to smooth the surface. -

Take a spoon and dollop mix onto a cookie sheet. Bake them for about 10-15 mins.

- If you want your cookie/scones to be moist cook for 10 mins- If you want a little bit dryer cook for 15 mins.

Enjoy :)
