CHEF JOHN'S SCONES
This recipe is very slightly adapted from one by someone called Friendlyfood on Allrecipes, who claims it was adapted from a version made at the Savoy Hotel in London. I have to say, I am very impressed. It was light, tender, moist and very delicious.

- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Whisk flour, white sugar, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Cut in butter with a knife or pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a food processor, pulse together flour, cup sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add butter and pulse until pea-size pieces form. In a small bowl, whisk together buttermilk and egg yolk. Slowly pour buttermilk mixture through feed tube into processor, pulsing until dough just comes together.
- Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface and sprinkle raspberries on top. Knead 3 times to fold in raspberries (there may be loose pieces of dough and a stray berry or 2). Gather and pat dough into a 1-inch-thick square and cut or pull apart into 2-inch pieces. Place pieces, about 2 inches apart, on 2 parchment-lined rimmed baking sheets and sprinkle tops with 1 tablespoon sugar.
- Bake until golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Let scones cool slightly on sheets on wire racks. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:
- Use fresh berries for the best flavor. Frozen berries can also be used, but they should be thawed and drained before using.
- If you don't have sour cream, you can substitute plain yogurt or buttermilk.
- The dough should be sticky, but not too wet. If it's too wet, add more flour until it reaches the right consistency.
- Don't overwork the dough. Overworking will make the scones tough.
- When cutting out the scones, use a sharp knife or pastry cutter. This will help to prevent the scones from becoming ragged.
- Bake the scones until they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Serve the scones warm with your favorite toppings, such as butter, jam, or clotted cream.
