Combine flour, baking powder, soda, and salt in a medium bowl; gently whisk together till well combined. Cut in butter with two knives till mixture resembles small floury peas. Stir in dried fruit till it's well coated with flour (this prevent clumps of fruit from forming in the scone). Combine buttermilk, egg, and vanilla; whisk till well blended. Stir into dry ingredients, stirring gently till soft dough forms. Turn dough out onto parchment lined baking sheet and form into a 8-inch round. (May also form into individual scones if you like). Brush top of scone with a little milk and sprinkle lightly with granulated sugar. (If you sprinkle heavily, a sugary crust will form). Bake scone at 375 deg. F. for 12-15 minutes, till scone tests done. Let cool a couple minutes before serving.
