Steps

1
Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in cold butter until pea-sized crumbs form.
2
Mix cream, egg, and vanilla. Fold into dry ingredients. Gently fold in strawberries and thyme — don't overmix.
3
Pat dough into a circle, cut into 8 wedges. Brush tops with cream.
4
Air fry at 340°F for 12-14 minutes until golden on top and cooked through.
5
Whisk glaze ingredients and drizzle over cooled scones.

💡

Tip: Cold butter is essential — it creates the flaky layers. Handle the dough as little as possible; overworking makes tough scones. The thyme adds a subtle earthy note that pairs beautifully with strawberry.
