These easy cream scones make a quick breakfast but are also perfect to serve for a fancy brunch.
Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Stir in cream. Stir in any additional flavor add-ins you would like. (See below.)
Drop spoonfuls onto a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet. You should get about 18.
Top with coarse sugar and/or sprinkles if not glazing the scones. (If you are using the glaze, wait to add the sprinkles when you are done baking the scones.)
Bake at 400 degrees for approximately 12 minutes.
Stir glaze ingredients together if using. Drizzle over scones. Top with sprinkles.
You can substitute any flavor of extract for the vanilla. Both almond extract and orange extract are a hit at my house.
To add variety to your easy cream scones you can add in any of the following:
To freeze scones:
Drop on baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place in the freezer just until frozen. Once frozen, remove from baking sheet and place is a zippered freezer bag. To cook from frozen, just add a couple minutes to the baking time.
