Time 25m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

2 cups self raising flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons powdered milk
4 tablespoons sugar
4 tablespoons coconut
30 g butter
3/4 cup water
2 tablespoons butter, extra
2 tablespoons brown sugar

Steps:

Heat oven to 220°C.
Melt extra 2 tablespoons of butter and brown sugar together (I use the microwave).
Mix flour, salt, milk powder, sugar, coconut, butter and water to a soft dough.
Roll and cut into 12 rounds.
Press a thumb hole in the top of each round.
Fill with melted butter mixture.
Cook for 10-15 minutes or until cooked through.

Tips:

Use cold butter: This will help to create flaky layers in the scones.
Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make the scones tough.
Chill the dough before baking: This will help the scones to hold their shape.
Bake the scones until they are golden brown: Overbaking will make the scones dry.
Serve the scones warm with your favorite toppings: Butter, jam, clotted cream, or lemon curd are all classic choices.
