Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°(F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper and mix well to combine.
Using a pastry cutter, work the butter into the dough until it resembles a coarse meal. The chunks of butter should be about the size of peas.
In a glass measuring cup whisk together the egg, cream, and sun-dried tomatoes. Pour this liquid mixture into the center of the flour mixture.
Add in both of the cheeses and the basil. Use a spatula to stir everything together until just moistened. Don't worry if the dough looks shaggy!
Empty the loose dough out onto a clean, lightly floured work surface. Knead the dough until it comes together, then shape it into an 8-inch disc.
Cut the disc into 8 even wedges and carefully transfer them to the prepared sheet, placing them 2-inches apart.
Lightly brush each scone with the egg wash.
Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow scones to cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheet and serve warm!
For the Egg Wash:
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water until well combined. Use as directed above.
