- Preheat oven to 200 C / Gas 6. Lightly grease or line a baking tray with baking paper.
- In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar together with a wooden spoon. Add salt, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and beaten egg; mix well. Add half of the flour and half of the soured cream, mix again. Add the remaining flour and soured cream and mix until a dough is formed. The dough will be a bit wet. Stir in blueberries.
- Divide the dough into 9 scones (they don't have to be perfectly round) and place on the prepared baking tray. Brush the scones with beaten egg and sprinkle with sugar.
- Bake the scones in preheated oven for 15 to 17 minutes or until golden brown on top and cooked through. Let the scones cool for 2 minutes on the baking tray, then transfer them to a wire rack. Serve warm.
