Step 1
In a large bowl whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and then with a pastry blender cut in the butter to look like coarse crumbs.
Step 2
Gently fold in berries into the flour mixture trying not to mush them or you will get pink scones.
Step 3
In a small bowl combine the cream, beaten egg, and vanilla; mix well but being careful not to mush the berries.
Step 4
Knead gently on a lightly floured board being careful of the berries; roll or pat into a 7" circle about 1 1/2" thick.
Step 5
Cut circle in half and then each half into four pie-shaped wedges; place on a baking sheet and brush the tops with egg wash.
Step 6
Bake in 400 degree oven on the middle rack so they won't get too brown on the bottoms; place one sheet on top of another sheet and bake for about 20 minutes.
