Directions:
Put flour and margarine into a large mixing bowl. Using your finger tips, mix margarine and flour. Add sugar and fruit and mix well. Mix egg and buttermilk together. Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and gradually add just enough of the buttermilk/egg mixture to make a soft dough. Mix with a spoon. Turn out onto lightly floured surface. Press to required thickness and cut with scone cutter or a glass (will do the job just as well). Bake at 375º F for 20-25 minutes or until nicely browned.
