Steps:
- Preheat oven to 475 F.
- Ina medium bowl, measure out 2 cups of self-rising flour.
- If you don't have self-rising flour in your kitchen, use this: 2 cups flour + 1 tbsp baking powder + ¼ tsp salt.
- Add the blackberries and sugar to this mixture and stir together.
- I kept the blackberries whole for this scone recipe because I love big juicy bites of cooked blackberries studded throughout the scone.
- Plus blackberries get crazy messy if you try to cut them in half, so there's that.
- Measure out 1 ½ cups whipping cream into a measuring cup, pour into the flour mixture, and stir.
- Use your hands to gather the dough together (use a bit of extra flour on your hands if it's too sticky), and put it onto a sprayed baking sheet.
- Pat the dough into a circle about ¾" thick.
- Slice into 8 wedges.
- Bake at 475F for 12-15 minutes until golden on top, and until the middle of the scones is cooked.
- Enjoy your scones!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375F; lightly spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a food processor, combine the oats, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt; whirl until the oats are finely ground, about 1 minute.
- Add the margarine and pulse until coarsely granular, about 40 times.
- With the machine running, drizzle the buttermilk through the feed tube to form a dough.
- On a floured surface, turn out the dough.
- With lightly floured hands, pat it into a 10 x 8" rectangle about 1/2" thick.
- With the side of your finger, make a shallow spiral-shaped furrow in the dough; fill with the fruit spread, then gently press the fruit spread into the furrow.
- With a 21/2-inch biscuit or cookie cutter dipped in flour, cut out 12 scones, pushing the dough scraps together for the last.
- Transfer the scones to the baking sheet and brush the tops with egg substitute.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh blackberries. If you don't have fresh blackberries, you can use frozen blackberries that have been thawed and drained.
- To make sure your scones are light and fluffy, be sure to not overmix the dough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
- To prevent the scones from sticking to the baking sheet, line the baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Serve the scones warm with butter, jam, or honey.
