Apparently "powdered sugar" means confectioners sugar. I tried this and wondered why the sugar was still grainy. For us less-experienced cooks, it would be helpful if you said confectioners sugar when you mean confectioners sugar.

These were so easy to make! They turned out so good, so zesty and delicious. I love the ratio of blueberries to the batter, usually scones are so dry but these were moist and yummy! I found that the juice of two oranges was a little much, my glaze didnt end up getting hazy but it didnt affect the flavor at all. Delish!

I'm new to baking scones. I wonder if someone can help me to answer some of the questions about Tyler's recipe. "Roll blueberries in flour to coat, this will help prevent the fruit from sinking to the bottom of the scone when baked. Fold the blueberries into batter, being careful not to bruise". When he says 1. "roll blueberries in flour" does it mean coat the blueberries in flour? 2. how do you fold the blueberries into batter? Is there a specific way to do it? so that the batter doesn't sink? As you can tell, I'm a visual person. I wish the recipe comes with a video clip. thanks.

I am always telling my wife the same thing norlou_7167197. Make it as directed first then tweek to your own taste.
They are scones, do the calories really matter? If whole wheat was subbed, I would think they would be dense, and heavy. Somethings should be left alone and enjoyed.

I will defenitely make these and because I have baked for SO MANY YEARS, I am giving this recipe 5 stars right now.
I always make a new recipe exactly as it's given, otherwise, how do I know what it truly tastes like? So many of you substitute before you try the recipe. Tyler, or any Chef, tweaks a recipe until he's satisfied. (hope he doesn't read these reviews! lol I don't understand why some of you even bother to try a new recipe when you do not have the proper ingredients. Shop first...then give it a fair try, OK? Use a 'light' hand when mixing scones/muffins and don't ever overmix. I encourage everyone to keep on baking...we ALL have failures.

I have to admit, I'm rating this 5 stars and I never even got as far as the Orange Glaze. We got them out of the oven and started eating and just LOVED them. No need for the glaze. I promise, next time I'll try to get to that. But what an AWESOME recipe. My husband was enthralled.

I use to call my father on Saturday morning and tell him I was going to make scones and I'd bring him a few. More than once, they turned out like something the NHL would use. And then I found Tyler Florence's recipe for blueberry scones with orange glaze. These are the best scones I've ever tasted. Though he is now deceased, my Father thanked you so much for teaching me how to finally make excellent scone. Thank you Tyler!!!

I really liked the flavor of the scones but felt that they were more like a muffin and less like a scone. I think I would use my regular scone recipe then add the blueberries and the glaze, which was yummmmm. I didn't use as much sugar for the glaze (1 cup and I also used 2 clementines which worked just as well. Thank you for the recipe.
