Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven 425, place oven rack in middle of oven. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.
• 2. In large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in cold butter with a pastry cutter. Mixture should look like coarse crumbs.
• 3. In small bowl, combine 1 egg, slightly beaten, lemon extract, buttermilk and lemon zest.
• 4. Add to flour mixture and stir just until dough comes together. Do not over mix. Fold in blueberries.
• 5. Knead dough in bowl 4-6 times. Transfer to a lightly floured surface. Pat dough into a 7" circle
• 6. Cut into 8 wedges. Place wedges on prepared cookie sheet.
• 7. Brush tops of scones with beaten egg. Sprinkle with sugar.
• 8. Bake at 425 for 20 mins. or until golden brown

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Sift together the dry ingredients; the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Using 2 forks or a pastry blender, cut in the butter to coat the pieces with the flour. The mixture should look like coarse crumbs. Fold the blueberries into the batter. Take care not to mash or bruise the blueberries because their strong color will bleed into the dough. Make a well in the center and pour in the heavy cream. Fold everything together just to incorporate; do not overwork the dough.
• Press the dough out on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle about 12 by 3 by 1 1/4 inches. Cut the rectangle in 1/2 then cut the pieces in 1/2 again, giving you 4 (3-inch) squares. Cut the squares in 1/2 on a diagonal to give you the classic triangle shape. Place the scones on an ungreased cookie sheet and brush the tops with a little heavy cream. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until beautiful and brown. Let the scones cool a bit before you apply the glaze.
• You can make the lemon glaze in a double boiler, or for a simpler alternative, you can zap it in the microwave. Mix the lemon juice with the confectioners' until dissolved in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water for the double-boiler method, or in a microwave-safe bowl. Whisk in the butter and lemon zest. Either nuke the glaze for 30 seconds or continue whisking in the double boiler. Whisk the glaze to smooth out any lumps, then drizzle the glaze over the top of the scones. Let it set a minute before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
• Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, lemon zest, salt, and baking soda in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse 3 or 4 times to mix. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs, 20 to 25 times. Pour mixture into a large bowl. Fold in blueberries, making sure they are well coated with the dry ingredients.
• Beat 1/2 cup heavy cream, egg, and lemon juice together using a fork in a small bowl. Stir into flour mixture and mix just until slightly moistened.
• Turn dough out onto a well floured surface. Gather dough in a circle using floured hands, kneading only slightly to incorporate any remaining dry ingredients. Flatten dough into a 9-inch round disc; cut disc into 8 triangles. Transfer scones using a bench scraper to the prepared baking sheets (4 scones per baking sheet). Brush scones with 2 tablespoons heavy cream.
• Bake in the preheated oven until light brown, 20 to 23 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• Mix powdered sugar and lemon juice together in a small bowl. Transfer to a small resealable plastic bag; snip the corner off of the bag using scissors, and drizzle cooled scones with glaze.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F with rack in center. Place a baking mat on a baking sheet, and set aside.
• In a large bowl, sift together flour, 3 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, and salt. Using a pastry cutter or two knives, cut in butter until the largest pieces are the size of peas. Stir in blueberries and zest.
• Using a fork, whisk together cream and egg in a liquid measuring cup. Make a well in the center of dry ingredients, and pour in cream mixture. Stir lightly with fork just until dough comes together. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead a few times to mix well.
• Pat dough into a 6-inch square about 1 1/4 inches thick. Using a floured knife, cut into four 3-inch squares. Cut squares in half on the diagonal to form eight triangles. Transfer to prepared baking sheet.
• Brush tops with cream, and sprinkle with sugar. Bake until golden brown, 20 to 22 minutes. Transfer scones to wire racks to cool.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. Line cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper.
• In food processor bowl with metal blade, place flour, baking powder and 3 tablespoons of the sugar. Cover; process with on-and-off pulses 6 times or until blended. Add butter, scattering evenly over dry ingredients, and lemon peel. Cover; process with on-and-off pulses 12 times or until consistency of coarse crumbs.
• Transfer crumb mixture to large bowl. Add blueberries, tossing with fork until blended. Add whipping cream and vanilla, tossing with fork just until dough begins to form, about 30 seconds (do not overmix).
• On cookie sheet, press dough into 8-inch round. Cut into 8 wedges; separate wedges slightly. Sprinkle remaining 1 tablespoon sugar evenly over wedges.
• Bake 14 to 16 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on cooling rack 10 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. In large bowl, mix flour, 1/4 cup sugar, the lemon peel, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter, using pastry blender or crisscrossing 2 knives, until mixture looks like fine crumbs.
• In small bowl, mix cream cheese and egg until smooth. Gradually stir in milk and blueberries. Stir cream cheese mixture into flour mixture until dough leaves side of bowl and forms a ball.
• Place about 1/3 cup dough in each wedge of ungreased divided scone pan. Brush with lemon juice. Sprinkle with sugar.
• Bake 20 to 22 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from pan to cooling rack. Serve warm.
