Basic Milk Scones

Ingredients for 15

3 cups self raising flour (500 g)
⅓ cup caster sugar (110 g)
½ cup unsalted butter (110g
1 cup milk (250ml)

Method

Preheat oven to 220ºC normal bake. Place flour, sugar and butter in a bowl and mix until butter is rubbed into flour and sugar. Add milk and mix until combined, don’t over mix which will make the scones tough. Place on a workbench dusted with flour and roll or press out to a thickness of approx. 3 cm. Cut scones with a 5 cm round cutter. Place on lightly greased flat baking tray. Bake in the oven for approx. 12 min. Serve hot or cold with jam and whipped cream.

Note: Self raising flour is made with 475 gram plain white flour mixed with 25 gram baking powder.
