Ingredients

1 pint blueberries
1 pint raspberries
1 pint blackberries
1 pint strawberries, hulled and sliced in half
1/2 cup granulated sugar, plus more, for dusting
Pinch cinnamon
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/2 lemon, juiced
1 recipe Blueberry Scone Dough, recipe follows
Melted butter

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a mixing bowl, combine berries with sugar, cinnamon, cornstarch and lemon juice. Stir gently to combine. Spread berry mixture out on a 10-inch tart or gratin dish. Dollop spoonfuls of scone dough evenly over the top of the fruit; leave a border around the edge of the dish for spreading. Drizzle the surface with melted butter and dust with sugar. Set on a cookie sheet and bake for 25 to 35 minutes until the top is golden brown and the fruit juices bubbling.

Cool for 15 minutes before serving. Serve with heavy cream, whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

Blueberry Scones:

2 cups unbleached flour, plus more for rolling berries
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cut in chunks
3/4 cup buttermilk or cream
1 egg
1 pint fresh blueberries

In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, salt and sugar; mix thoroughly. Cut in butter using 2 forks or a pastry blender. The butter pieces should be coated with flour and resemble crumbs.

In another bowl, mix buttermilk and egg together, and then add to the flour mixture. Mix just to incorporate, do no overwork the dough.

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.

Fabulous!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I really like the simplicity of this recipe. I added a little red wine to the berries, about a third of a cup, which made... them a bit more scrumptuous. Also, I didn't use blueberries, as they aren't my favorite. I made the scone dough plain. I made individual servings in ramikins, so cooking time wasn't a problem, as other reviews have mentioned that they had to cook it a bit longer. I also used this recipe to create a berry syrup served on the side of plain scones and served it at a brunch. I blended the berry mixture (same changes as mentioned above, added wine, minus the blueberries), then blended it, strained it, and heated iit on the stovetop. DELICIOUS! The scone dough recipe is fantastic, and can be used in so many different ways! Read more

Too Salty
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was excellent, but there is too much salt in the scone mixture. Also, it does need to bake longer, up to 10 minutes... more than the max of 35. I will make this again, as it is delicious. Goes awesome with ice cream.Read more

Easy and delicious
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Easy and delicious is what gives this recipe an 'excellent' rating. The scone mix was very flavorful and complimented the... berries very well. The only change I made was cooking this 20 minutes longer because the scones were still very gooey on the bottom after the recommended cooking time. I will make this again and the scones on their own. Why not pour the berry sauce on the top with ice cream...like an upside down cobbler!Read more

heavenly
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I doubled the strawberries, since i didnt have blackberries. And since i used up my blueberries in the cobbler, I ommitted... them, and made the cobbler plain. Great EASY summer dessert. The scone tastes so light and airy. Read more

Summer Blast

Wow, what an amazingly delicious dessert. I loved everything about it. I did bake it a little longer than the actual bake... time listed and it was perfect. My family raved about it. Can't wait to make this one again. Read more
