Sunday was made for this. 🫐
Blueberry & Cardamom Scones — flaky, golden, bursting with juicy blueberries and finished with a cardamom icing drizzle. The kind of bake that turns a lazy Sunday into a proper occasion.
No fancy skills needed. NOMU MiniMakes All Purpose Dough & Batter Mix does the hard work. You just show up, put the kettle on, and take the credit. ☕
🫐 What you need:
Scones:
2 x 150g sachets NOMU MiniMakes All Purpose Dough & Batter Mix
80g unsalted butter, cold & cubed
⅓ cup white sugar
1 tsp ground cardamom (optional but do it)
100g fresh blueberries
⅓ cup (80ml) milk + extra for brushing
1 large egg
Demerara or brown sugar for sprinkling
Icing Drizzle:
⅓ cup icing sugar, sifted
1–2 tsp milk
Pinch of cardamom
👩🍳 How to make them:
1️⃣ Preheat oven to 200°C.
2️⃣ Rub cold butter into the dry mix until it looks like coarse breadcrumbs (or pulse in a food processor). Add cardamom, sugar and most of the blueberries — toss gently.
3️⃣ Whisk milk and egg together, fold into the mixture to form a scraggly dough. Turn out onto a floured surface, press together gently and shape into a flat disc about 2cm thick and 20cm wide.
4️⃣ Cut into 8 wedges, space out on a lined tray. Brush with milk, press a few reserved blueberries on top, sprinkle with brown sugar.
5️⃣ Bake 15–20 mins until golden. Cool, then drizzle with the icing.
6️⃣ Serve with blueberry jam and whipped cream. Sunday sorted. 🫐
💡 Tip: If it’s a warm day like it has been for the last month and your dough starts getting sticky, pop it on a lined tray and freeze for 30 mins before cutting — makes shaping much easier.
