Awesome English Tea Scones image

I serve these wonderful tea scones with homemade strawberry jam and Devonshire clotted cream and they are the highlight of the afternoon tea I serve my guests. Incredibly easy to make and fast to disappear. I hope you'll try them and if you don't have clotted cream available, serve whipped heavy cream with jam of your choice. Enjoy!

Time 20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 2/3 cups self-rising flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter (cut into bits)
1 large egg
5 ounces milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • In a bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt.
  • Add the butter and blend the mixture until it resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
  • In a bowl, beat together the egg and milk.
  • Add this mixture, a little at a time, to the dry ingredients until a sticky dough is formed.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a round 3/4-inch thick.
  • With a cookie cutter, stamp out rounds.
  • (I use a drinking glass approx. 2" diameter) Transfer rounds to a greased baking sheet.
  • Bake for 12- 15 minutes until golden.
  • Serve with jam and cream.
