📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

4
Scrape dough onto prepared work surface and knead with your hands to be sure it's combined. If the dough is too sticky, flour your hands or add 1 or 2 tablespoons flour to the dough.
5
Press the dough into an 8-inch disk that is about 1 inch tall. Using a chef's knife, pizza cutter, or bench scraper, cut the disk into 8 wedges.
6
Transfer the wedges to the prepared baking sheet. Whisk together the egg and water to make egg wash, then brush over the top of the scones.
