The maple flavor shines through without being overpowering in this recipe, adapted from the Samuel Sewall Inn, in Brookline, Mass. It's more of a traditional scone, not cakey and soft, but crumbly and robust - strong enough to stand up to a slathering of Irish butter. They're best served warm, on a fall morning, alongside a cup of tea or a strong cup of coffee.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. In a large bowl, combine whole-wheat flour, 1 cup white flour, brown sugar, baking powder and salt. Using a pastry blender, or two knives scissors-fashion, cut butter into flour mixture until mixture resembles fine crumbs.
- Add nuts or wheat berries. Stir in the maple syrup and egg and just enough milk so that dough leaves side of bowl and forms a ball. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface; gently roll in flour to coat. Knead lightly; if dough is very soft, roll in flour again. Transfer to a lightly greased baking sheet. Pat or roll into an 8-inch disk; cut into 8 wedges, but do not separate.
- Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Immediately remove from baking sheet, and carefully separate. Serve warm.
