Preparation Instructions

Preheat oven to 425F.
Mix together the vanilla bean seeds, strawberries, cream and milk in a small bowl. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the flours, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in the butter and work mixture together with your fingertips until it reaches the consistency of sand.
Add the strawberries and milk to the dry ingredients and mix together until a shaggy, wet dough forms.
Pat dough into a large circle on a lined baking sheet and cut into eight pieces (like cutting a pie). Separate the pieces about an inch apart and bake for 16 minutes or until golden.
Let scones cool completely while you combine the powdered sugar and milk to make the icing.
Drizzle icing over scones and serve.
