Time 20m

Yield 36 scones

Number Of Ingredients 4

750 g self raising flour (6 cups)
1 teaspoon salt
250 ml cream (1 cup)
500 ml milk (approx)

Steps:

  • Sift flour and salt really well together.
  • Add sufficient enough milk and cream gradually, to make a firm but not dry mixture (just enough milk to make a dough, which is easy to handle and not too sticky, without to much extra flour on the board).
  • Roll the mixture one way lightly. Cut and place scone shapes on a cold tray and brush tops with a little milk or melted butter.
  • Bake in an oven set at 220C for 8 to 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right flour: Strong flour or bread flour is best for scones, as it will give them a light and fluffy texture. If you don't have strong flour, you can use all-purpose flour, but your scones may be a bit denser.
  • Use cold butter: Cold butter will help to create flaky layers in your scones. If you use melted butter, your scones will be more dense and less flavorful.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make your scones tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together, and then stop.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help to firm up the butter and make it easier to roll out. This will also help to prevent the scones from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the scones in a hot oven: A hot oven will help to create a crispy exterior and a light and fluffy interior.
  • Serve the scones warm: Scones are best served warm, when they are fresh out of the oven. You can also reheat them in a warm oven or toaster oven.

Conclusion:

Scones are a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized with a variety of flavors and toppings. With a little practice, you can make perfect scones that will impress your friends and family.
