Preparation

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, add flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.

Cut in butter, using a pastry cutter until crumbly.

Stir in the blueberries and lemon zest.

In a separate bowl, whisk the cream and the egg together.

Form an indentation in the center of the dough and pour liquid mixture in well. Using a fork, gradually start stirring mixture until the dough starts coming together.

Place on a lightly floured surface and knead only until it is well mixed. Don't over mix.

For a circle and cut into wedges.

Place on baking sheets covered with parchment paper. Brush tops with extra cream and sprinkle with sugar while still wet.
