CLASSIC RICH SCONE RECIPE image

Categories     Cake     Egg     Bake     Kid-Friendly

Yield 8 Scones

Number Of Ingredients 7

225g / 8oz - Self Rasing Flour
pinch - Salt
50g / 2oz - Margarine / Butter
25g / 1oz - Caster sugar ( Granulated sugar will be fine as well )
1 egg topped up with milk - To make 150ml / quarter pint of liquid
ADDITIONAL -
50g / 2oz - Currants / Sultanas

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 220°C / 425°F / Gas Mark 7 2. Grease baking tray (Or use a greaseproof silicone sheet if you have one!) 3. Mix Flour and salt together, followed by rubbing the margarine so it forms a breadcrumb like consistency. 4. Add in sugar and fruit if you're using it. 5. Add egg and milk, reserving a little for brushing the tops. 6. Knead and fold lightly on a floured surface 7. Roll / pat out to 1cm (1/2 inch) in thickness and cut into 6.5cm (1/2 inch) rounds. - This is easily customisable, I never use the exact measurements. 8.Re-Roll out any trimmings and cut further rounds if you can. Any remaning can just be put into a ball and added onto the tray as to not make any waste! 9. Brush the tops of the scones with the egg / milk mixture (lightly) This will make sure they're nice and browned on the top. 10. Bake for around 10 minutes. 11. Once finished put onto a wire rack and cool. Serve with a dollop of Jam and cream!

I'm not sure what went wrong, but these scones were a complete disaster. I ended up throwing them away.

These scones were a bit of a disappointment. They were dry and crumbly.

Overall, I thought these scones were just okay. I don't think I'll be making them again.

I had some trouble getting the scones out of the pan. I think I'll try greasing the pan next time.

The scones didn't rise as much as I expected. I'm not sure if I did something wrong or if it's just the recipe.

I found that the scones were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

These scones are a bit more dense than I expected, but they're still very good. I think I might try adding a little more baking powder next time.

I love that these scones can be made ahead of time. I often make a batch on the weekend and then enjoy them throughout the week.

These scones are so versatile. I've served them with jam and cream, honey and butter, and even just plain. They're delicious every time.

I added some dried cranberries and chopped walnuts to my scones and they were amazing! I highly recommend trying this variation.

These scones are a game-changer! They're so light and fluffy, with a perfect crumb. I love the subtle sweetness from the honey and vanilla.
