Servings: persons

1 cup all purpose flour
2 cups whole wheat flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons butter cold, cut into chunks
1 cup buttermilk low-fat or regular*
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup chopped walnuts finely
2 teaspoons grated orange zest
1/4 cup blackberry preserves

1
Preheat the oven to 375u00b0F (190u00b0C). Butter a large baking sheet, or line it with a sheet of cooking parchment.
2
In a bowl, mix the flours, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the butter and use a fork or your fingertips to rub the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3
In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, and vanilla. Add to the flour mixture along with the 1/2 cup (120 ml) walnuts and the orange zest. Stir with a fork until the dough is evenly moistened and starts to come together into a ball. (Dough will look crumbly; add another tablespoon of buttermilk if the dough is too dry to come together.)
4
Scrape the dough onto a lightly floured board and knead a few times. Pat the dough into a 10- to 12-inch (25- to 30-cm) round. Slide the round onto the prepared baking sheet and cut into 8 wedges, leaving the wedges in place. Use your thumb to make a depression 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter on the wide end of each wedge and use a spoon to fill each with about 1/2 tablespoon (1.5 ml) jam. Sprinkle tops of scones with remaining 2 tablespoons (30 ml) chopped walnuts.
5
Bake until golden brown, 25 to 28 minutes. Recut scones to separate, and serve warm, or transfer to a rack to cool completely.
