Lemon Blueberry Shortcakes
- FOR THE SHORTCAKES:
- 2 cups Flour
- 3 Tablespoons Sugar
- 1/2 teaspoons Kosher Salt
- 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1/2 cups Cold Butter, Cut Into Pieces
- 1/2 cups Cold Heavy Cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- 1 Tablespoon Cold Heavy Cream
- FOR THE BLUEBERRY FILLING:
- 1 pound Fresh Blueberries
- 1 whole Lemon, Zested
- 1/4 cups Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- FOR THE WHIPPED CREAM:
- 1-1/2 cup Cold Heavy Cream
- 2 Tablespoons White Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- For the shortcakes:
- 1. Preheat the oven to 450 F. Prepare a sheet pan by covering it with a sheet of parchment. Set aside.
- 2. In the bowl of a food processor, pulse together the flour, sugar, kosher salt and baking powder.
- 3. Add the cold butter and pulse to combine.
- 4. Add 1/2 cup of heavy cream and the vanilla and pulse until you have a very soft dough.
- 5. Transfer dough to a very lightly floured surface and pat into a disc. Cut disc into quarters.
- 6. Place the shortcakes on the prepared baking pan. Using the remaining tablespoon of cream rub it over the top of the shortcakes. Bake the shortcakes for 8 to 10 minutes or until slightly golden on top.
- 7. Let cool, even a little bit and split open. Add the whipped cream and a generous scoop of blueberries and serve.
- For the filling:
- Combine the blueberries, lemon zest, sugar and vanilla in a medium sized bowl. Gently combine and serve when ready. (You can keep this in the refrigerator up to a couple hours.)
- For the whipping cream:
- In a medium sized bowl beat the cold heavy cream, white sugar and vanilla together with an electric mixer until you have soft peaks. Serve immediately.
