Calories: 109kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup (8 oz) fresh strawberries hulled and sliced
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 1/4 tsp lemon zest
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup + 1 Tbsp granulated sugar
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 6 Tbsp unsalted butter cold
- 2/3 cup heavy cream
- 2 Tbsp sanding sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside.
- In a medium size mixing bowl, combine sliced strawberries, 1 tbsp. sugar, lemon juice and lemon zest. Gently mix together with a spoon.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine flour, baking powder, salt and remaining sugar. Using the whisk attachment, on low speed, mix until combined. Cube cold butter and slowly add to the mixture. Mix until ingredients turn into coarse crumbs. Remove bowl from stand. Combine vanilla and cream in a liquid measuring cup. Pour into dry ingredients, stir in (don’t worry if it looks really dry, it will moisten up when you add the berries). Gently fold in strawberry mixture.
- Scoop onto prepared baking sheets. Sprinkle tops with sanding sugar. Place into oven and bake for 24-26 minutes or until the tops begin to turn golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool on pan for 3-5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
