Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and vanilla extract. Gradually add the milk mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
-
Gently fold in the fresh cherries. Be careful not to overmix.
-
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it a few times until it comes together. Pat the dough into a circle about 1-inch thick.
-
Cut the dough into 8 wedges and transfer them to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
-
Brush the scones with beaten egg.
-
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown.
-
Allow the scones to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
