Ingredients
- 8.5 oz All-Purpose Flour
- 2.1 oz Granulated Sugar
- 0.35 oz Baking Powder
- 0.07 oz Salt
- 3.2 oz Cold Butter, cubed
- 3 oz Fresh Blueberries
- 0.14 oz Fresh Ginger, grated
- 4 fl oz Heavy Cream
- 2 Eggs
- 0.14 fl oz Vanilla Extract
Instructions
In a large bowl, sift together flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gently fold in the blueberries and grated ginger.
In a separate bowl, whisk together heavy cream, one egg, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
On a lightly floured surface, pat the dough into a 1-inch thick disc and cut into eight wedges.
In a small bowl, beat the remaining egg with a splash of water. Brush the tops of the wedges with the egg wash.
Arrange the wedges on parchment paper, ensuring they are spaced apart. Cook for 12 minutes.

"For a golden-brown finish, brush the surface of the scones with an egg wash (one beaten egg mixed with a small amount of water) before cooking."
