We had a nice yummy breakfast too (these are the tastiest scones ever)
Blueberry Cream Scones
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour (King Arthur is always best)
1/4 cup sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
3/4 tsp salt, as always Kosher Salt is best
6 tbsp butter, chilled and cut in small bits
3/4 cup frozen wild bluberries
1 cup heavy cream, plus a bit extra for brushing scones
1 egg
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Preheat the oven to 425. In a food processor combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the butter and process at short bursts, don't over process, there should still be a few small bits of butter, smaller then a pea, in the flour mixture. Dump the flour mixture in a large bowl and mix in the blueberries, don't bother thaw them, mix them in frozen. Stir together the cream, egg, and vanilla in a large measuring cup and pour into the flour mixture. Stir with a fork until the dough comes together (you may need to add a few more tablespoons of cream). Flour a board or a silicone baking mat and dump the dough out and pat in an 8 inch round
((One of my presents, a Martha Stewart baking mat with pre-measured circles drawn on it made this step a breeze). Dip a sharp knife in flour and score the dough into 8 sections. Separate the triangles of dough and transfer to a parchment lined baking sheet leaving one inch spaces between. Brush with a little extra cream and sprinkle on some sugar. Bake for 20 minutes, turning one half way through. Cool and serve with clotted cream and strawberry jam (for the true experience you really must have clotted cream, if you live in the states you can get some at Whole Foods like we do, or on amazon.)
