Instructions

Preheat the oven to 220°C (200°C fan).
In a large bowl, rub the cold diced butter into the self-raising flour until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
Stir in the caster sugar and a pinch of salt.
Make a well in the centre and pour in the milk and vanilla extract.
Using a flat-bladed knife, stir until the mixture forms a soft dough.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead briefly until smooth.
Roll out the dough to about 2.5cm thick and cut into rounds using a floured 5cm cutter.
Place the scones onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Brush the tops of the scones with a little milk.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until risen and golden.
Once baked, transfer the scones to a wire rack to cool slightly.
Serve the warm scones with clotted cream and strawberry jam.

Notes

Ensure the butter is cold when rubbing into the flour to achieve a flaky texture.
Do not over-knead the dough to avoid tough scones.
These scones are best served fresh on the day of baking.
