Scones

 Source: https://www.taste.com.au/recipes/basic-scones/12d869d1-2ac9-44ae-a88d-11354729fcb5




Ingredients: 

1. Plain flour, for dusting

2. 3 cups self raising flour

3. 80g butter, chilled and cubed

4. 1-1 1/4 cups milk

5. Jam, to serve

6. Whipped cream, to serve 


Instructions: 

  • Preheat oven to 200°C. Sift self-raising flour into a large bowl.
  • Using your fingertips, rub butter into flour until mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
  • Make a well in the centre. Add 1 cup of milk. Mix with a flat-bladed knife until mixture forms a soft dough, adding more milk if required. Turn onto a lightly floured surface. Knead gently until smooth (don't knead dough too much or scones will be tough).
  • Lightly dust a flat baking tray with plain flour.
  • Pat dough into a 2cm-thick round. Using a 5cm (diameter) round cutter, cut out 12 rounds. Press dough together and cut out remaining 4 rounds. Place scones onto prepared baking tray, 1cm apart. Sprinkle tops with a little plain flour. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden and well risen. Transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm with jam and cream (Whipped cream, to serve).
