Out of This World Lemon Blueberry Scones

I have been really loving this summers plump, sweet blueberries and have seen them paired with lemon a lot lately. This morning I ran across this Glazed Lemon Blueberry Scone recipe on Pinterest It sounded so delicious I finally decided to give the combo a try.  The recipe came from Sally's Baking Addiction blog. Don't walk but run to her blog to get the recipe it is that good! I promise you won't be sorry.
 Now I'm not a big fan of scones. They tend to be too much on the dry side for me but the recipe sounded so good that I ran out to get the cream and those juicy plump blue orbs of sweet goodness so I could make the scones for dessert tonight.
Well, the Lemon Blueberry Scones were a hit. I noticed my husband went back for seconds. They are easy to make and I followed the recipe. The one cup of blueberries is enough so you get juicy berries in every bite!
Now there is a lovely Lemon Glaze that you can top your scone with and I did as you can see from the photo above but they really don't need it if you are trying to cut back on sugar or calories.
I also grated the butter frozen like it said in the recipe and I think maybe that is why they are so tender and moist. So you might not want to skip that step.
If you try this recipe I would love to know how they turned out. 
Happy baking!
