SCONES (recipe from Maw Broon’s Afternoon Tea Book)

Preheat oven to 450F / 230C / Gas Mark 8

In a large bowl sift together:

200g / 7oz all purpose (plain flour)
50g / 1 3/4 oz sugar (less if preferred)
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp cream of tartar
1 tsp salt

Add in:
50g / 1 3/4 oz unsalted butter

Cut in butter with a pastry cutter or with your fingers until you have a consistency of soft breadcrumbs

In a measuring cup, mix a beaten egg with enough milk to equal 125mL or a little more than 4 oz

Add the milk mixture to the flour mixture until a soft dough is created.

Turn dough onto a well-floured surface and work quickly and lightly.

Roll or pat dough to 3/4” or 2 cm thick. Cut out scones with a 2 1/2” or 6cm cutter. Should make about 8 scones.

Place on a floured baking tray and brush tops with a little beaten egg.

Bake 8-10 minutes or until scones are lightly browned on top.
