INGREDIENTS

  • 300g self-raising flour 
  • 1tsp baking powder
  • 100g unsalted butter, cut into cubes
  • 200ml milk or milk alternative 
  • Optional: handful of sultanas or any other dried fruit
  • span style="color:#1abc9c">For savoury scones: add grated cheese and spring onions
     

METHOD

  • 1 Preheat the oven to 200°C and prepare two baking trays by lining them with parchment.
  • 2 Mix the flour and baking powder in a bowl. With your fingertips, rub in the cubes of butter until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. If including additional ingredients, do so at this point.
  • 3 Slowly mix in the milk until you have a soft dough. Knead for a minute or two until the dough is smooth, and turn it out onto a floured surface.
  • 4 Roll out the dough to a 2-3cm thickness and cut out rounds with a 5cm cutter. You could also use different shaped cutters to entice little foodies with more exciting shapes.
  • 5 Transfer the scones onto the baking sheets and cook for 15 minutes until golden.
  • 6 Serve with natural yoghurt if desired.
