Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 210 degrees celsius (fan-forced).
- Line a slice tin or cake tin (any baking dish with higher sides) with baking paper.
- Whisk flour, salt and sugar together in a large bowl.
- Cut butter into small cubes around the size of a dice and rub into the flour by hand until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
- Make a well in the centre and pour in all of the buttermilk.
- Stir with a butter knife until the mixture sticks together in a ball.
- Turn onto a lightly floured surface.
- Pat together mixture with your hands and flatten until about 3cm thick.
- Use a floured scone cutter to press out rounds. Don't twist the cutter as you cut out the scones!
- Carefully place the scones onto the baking tray, almost touching.
- Brush tops of scones with a little extra buttermilk or milk.
- Bake for about 15 minutes or until a pale golden colour on top.
- Allow to cool for a minute or two in the dish before turning out into a clean tea towel placed on a cooling rack. Wrap in the tea towel and – if possible – serve while still warm with jam and whipped cream.
