1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

In a separate large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.

Rub the cold butter between your thumb and fingers to incorporate the butter into the flour. Do this until your mix resembles coarse breadcrumbs. (You can also do this step with a pastry blender)

Pour the wet ingredients into the flour mixture and, working quickly, lightly knead the mixture just until it comes together.

Gather into a ball, transfer to a floured surface and roll out to a 6-inch (15 cm) circle, roughly 1¼-inch (3 cm) thick.

Cut the disc into 8 wedges, transfer to the parchment-lined baking sheet and brush the tops with egg wash.
