Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 200C/180C fan/400F. Line a baking sheet with baking paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder and salt. Rub in the butter with your fingertips until it forms fine crumbs. Using a knife, mix in the milk and vanilla until the dough starts to come together.
  3. Tip the mixture onto a lightly floured surface and knead 3 or 4 times. Don’t overwork the dough or the scones could become tough.
  4. Pat the dough out to ½ inch/2cm thickness. Use a 2 ½ inch/6cm round cookie cutter with the edge dipped in flour to cut out as many scones as possible. Pat the scraps back to a dough and repeat.
  5. Place the rounds onto the baking sheet and brush the tops with the milk
  6. Bake for 15-20 minutes until risen and golden.

For the vanilla cinnamon drizzle:

  1. Mix the sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Add the vanilla and 1 teaspoon of the milk, then stir until it reaches a thick drizzling consistency. If necessary to reach the required consistency, add more milk 1 teaspoon at a time to thin, or 1 teaspoon of powdered sugar at a time to thicken. Drizzle over the cooled scones.
  2. Best enjoyed on the same day or within 2 days if stored in an airtight container at room temperature.
