Blueberry Scones

Yields8 Servings

Adapted from Martha Stewart

Ingredients
 2 cups flour
 3 tbsp sugar
 1 tbsp baking powder
 ¾ tsp salt
 6 tbsp butter
 1.50 cups blueberries
 1 tsp lemon zest
  cup heavy cream
 2 eggs
Directions
1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees, with rack in center. Place a baking mat on a baking sheet, and set aside.

2

In a large bowl, sift together flour, 3 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, and salt. Using a pastry cutter or two knives, cut in butter until the largest pieces are the size of peas. Stir in blueberries and zest.

3

Using a fork, whisk together cream and egg in a liquid measuring cup. Make a well in the center of dry ingredients, and pour in cream mixture.

4

Stir lightly with fork just until dough comes together. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead a few times to mix well.

5

Pat dough into a circle 1 1/4 inches thick on baking sheet. Brush tops with cream, and sprinkle with sugar. Bake until golden brown, 20 to 22 minutes and cut in to 8 pieces once cooled.
