To Make Scones:
- In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, salt and sugar; mix thoroughly.
- Cut in butter using 2 forks or a pastry blender.
- The butter pieces should be coated with flour and resemble crumbs.
- In another bowl, mix buttermilk and egg together, and then add to the flour mixture.
- Mix just to incorporate, do no overwork the dough.
- Roll blueberries in flour to coat, this will help prevent the fruit from sinking to the bottom of the scone when baked.
- Fold the blueberries into batter, being careful not to bruise.
- Dollop spoonfuls of scone dough evenly over the top of the fruit and leave a border around the edge of the dish for spreading.
- Drizzle the surface with melted butter and dust with sugar.
- Set on a cookie sheet and bake for 25 to 35 minutes until the top is golden brown and the fruit juices bubbling.
- Cool for 15 minutes before serving.
- Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
