Ingredients
- 2½ cups (375g) flour
- ½ tsp salt
- 3 tsp baking powder
- 3 tbsp (30g) sugar
- ¼ cup (60g) cold butter
- ¾ cup (200ml) milk
- 2 eggs
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F. I use the fan assist mode for these scones. If you're baking in a normal oven, add 5 minutes to the baking time.
- Sift the dry ingredients into a large bowl.
- Cube the cold butter and add to the bowl with the dry ingredients. Rub the butter into the flour with the tips of your fingers until the mixture is sandy.
- Whisk one egg and milk together then add to the bowl. Gently bring the dough together with two knives. The dough will be quite rough and shaggy.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface then press into a disk, approximately 3-4cm / 1-2 inches thick.
- With a floured round cutter, cut scones out of the dough and place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
- Whisk the remaining egg and a splash of milk together. Brush the tops of the scones with egg wash then place in the oven.
- Bake for 15 minutes or until the scones are golden and risen.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes then serve with jam and cream.
