Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. For the buttermilk and honey butter: combine the first 4 ingredients in a food processor and turn on high. The liquid will slosh, whip, and then separate after 4 minutes. When the mixture separates, stop processing and strain out the buttermilk-there should be exactly 3/4 cup, which is what you need for the scones. Strain out the butter and squeeze dry.
  2. For the scones: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  3. In a food processor bowl add flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Add cold butter cubes and pulse until you have a texture of coarse bread crumbs.
  5. Transfer to a large mixing bowl. Toss berries (which have been washed and dried thoroughly) in a small amount of flour and add them to the mixture.
  6. Add the buttermilk and either toss with a fork or fold with a spatula to incorporate the berries without smashing them. Mix to combine, but don't over mix.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Using a pastry brush, paint the tops of each scone lightly with buttermilk or a bit of milk and sprinkle with sugar.
  8. Bake until golden brown, and nice and puffy, about 10-15 minutes.
  9. Serve warm with orange honey butter.
  10. Notes: if you are making a scone with juice, add that after you do the buttermilk step. When I use fresh fruit juice, I don't put any sugar in the dough recipe because I think it makes it too sweet. You want to stick with small to medium scones here. Large ones will be too dark outside and under cooked inside.
