Do you have a recipe for scones?

Blueberry Scones

3/4 cup Blueberries, dried
1-3/4 cups Flour, sifted
2-1/4 tsp Baking Powder
1 Tbsp Sugar, plus a little more for topping
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup Butter
2 Eggs
1/3 cup Cream

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

Place blueberries in a bowl with enough hot water to cover. Soak for about 5 minutes.

Drain blueberries. Mix together flour, baking powder, 1 Tbsp sugar, and salt in a bowl. Cut in the butter using a pastry blender. Stir in blueberries. In a separate bowl, beat eggs. Reserve 2 Tbsp and add remaining eggs to dry ingredients. Pour in cream. Combine with a few swift strokes. Place on a slightly floured board and pat or roll to a thickness of 3/4 inch. Cut with a knife into diamond shapes or into 2-inch rounds. Brush with reserved egg and sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 15 minutes.
