Cream Scones
Report
The ultimate scones recipe. Deliciously light and fluffy, and no need to rub in butter!
Share:
Ingredients
- 2 cups plain flour (250 grams)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 3 tablespoons caster sugar
- 1 medium egg
- ½ cup thickened cream (heavy cream) (125 ml)
- ½ cup milk (125ml)
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to moderately hot (190-200 degrees celsius, fan-forced).
- Sift flour, baking powder and sugar into a bowl.
- Whisk egg, cream and milk together.
- Pour most of the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Keep a tablespoon or two of the wet ingredients aside.
- Mix ingredients using a butter knife or other flat-bladed knife knife. The mixture should hold together well and be a little sticky to touch. Add a little extra of the wet ingredients if the mixture is too dry.
- Turn onto a lightly floured surface and sprinkle a little extra flour over the mixture.
- Gently knead for 10 seconds. Shape the dough into a round about 2-3 cm thick.
- Use a 5cm (in diameter) round cutter to cut out 12 scones.
- Place the scones, not quite touching, on a greased tray.
- Brush the tops with the remaining wet mixture.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a light golden colour.
- Once baked, transfer to a clean tea towel and wrap the scones before serving warm.
- Enjoy with cream and jam.
