blackberry scones

here's what i mailed the woman from the paper. it's pretty much the same as the cranberry scones one, but with blackberries, and changed for cooking outside with a dutch oven...

Blackberry Scones

Ingredients:
1 single serving container of vanilla yogurt
1 large egg
3 cups flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 stick cold, unsalted butter, cut up
1 bag blackberries
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp grated orange peel

Put flour, baking powder, soda, sugar, orange peel, and salt into a large
bowl. Stir to mix well. Add the stick of butter and cut in with a pastry
blender or rub in with your fingers, till mixture looks like fine
granules.

Mix in egg and yogurt with a fork. When it starts to bind, add the
blackberries and work with your hands until a soft dough forms.

Turn out onto lightly floured parchment paper and form into a ball.
Flatten the ball out to a large disc and cut into 8 wedges, but leave them
in place on the paper.

Place the paper, scones and all, into a 12 inch dutch oven. Bake for 1
hour with 15 coals on top and 8-10 on the bottom. Turn oven 90 degrees,
then turn the lid 90 degrees every 15 minutes. NO PEEKING! Wait for the
smell.

Makes 8 {honkin huge} scones.
