Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tbsp granulated sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp fine sea salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 cup chopped fresh strawberries
1 large eggs
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1 tbsp milk
1/2 tbsp course sugar
2/3 cup powdered sugar
1 tbsp milk

Steps

Heat the oven to 400 F and line a large baking sheet with parchment.
Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl, then cut in the butter until crumbly.
Stir in the strawberries, egg, and cream until a soft dough forms.
Pat the dough into a one-inch-thick round, cut it into twelve wedges, and brush the tops with milk and coarse sugar.
Bake for 16 to 20 minutes, until golden and cooked through.
Whisk the powdered sugar with the remaining milk, then drizzle it over the warm scones.
