Lemon Rosemary Scones

cooking spray
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
1 tbsp lemon peel
2 tsp fresh rosemary, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter
2/3 cup milk
1 egg, beaten
1 egg white, beaten
2 tsp milk 

Preheat oven to 425°F. Lightly coat a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray; set aside. In a large bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, lemon peel, rosemary, and salt. Using a pastry blender, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well in the center of flour mixture. In a small bowl, stir together the 2/3 cup milk, the egg, and egg white. Add milk mixture all at once to flour mixture. Using a fork, stir just until moistened.

Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface. Quickly knead dough by folding and pressing gently 10 to 12 times or just until dough is smooth. Pat gently into a 9-inch circle, about 1/2-inch thick. Cut the dough into 12 wedges.Transfer scones to prepared baking sheet. Brush tops with the 2 teaspoons milk. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm
