Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups flour, 1 tbsp baking powder, and 1/2 tsp salt. Cut in 1/2 cup cold butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 3
Stir in 1/4 cup sugar. Add 3/4 cup heavy cream and stir just until a soft dough forms; do not overmix.
Step 4
Turn dough onto a floured surface, gently knead 2-3 times, then pat into a 1-inch thick round. Cut with a 2-inch biscuit cutter.
Step 5
Place scones on prepared sheet, brush tops with a little extra cream if desired. Bake until golden brown, 12-15 minutes.
Step 6
Cool scones on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Split each scone and spread with clotted cream and blueberry jam.
