Agave Blueberry Walnut Scones

Here is a great recipe from Kristie not only is it yummy it is healthy for you!

Agave Blueberry Walnut Scones
2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/2 cups bran flour
2 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
9 tablespoons Agave Nectar, plus additional for glazing
1 cup (2 sticks) cold butter, cut into small pieces
1 cup blueberries
1 cup finely chopped walnuts
3 large eggs
1/2 cup honey Greek yogurt
3 teaspoons vanilla extract

Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, mix together flour, baking powder and salt. Knead in butter, using fingertips, until well incorporated and mixture starts to clump together, forming pea-sized lumps. Gently stir in blueberries and walnuts until combined. 
In a small bowl, whisk together 3 eggs, yogurt, Agave nectar and vanilla until combined; sprinkle into flour mixture and toss together gently. 

Turn shaggy dough out onto a floured surface, lightly sprinkle top of lump with more flour and gently pat top until it comes flat, handling as little as possible. Form two (6-inch) rounds. Insides of the rounds should be thicker. Slice each round into 8 equal triangles and place on cookie sheets.

Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on wire racks until ready to glaze.

Makes 18 scones.
