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 found the instructions a bit confusing. I think they could be written more clearly.

This recipe looks delicious, but I'm on a low-carb diet. Do you have any suggestions for how I could make it healthier?

I'm allergic to nuts. Can I substitute something else for the walnuts?

Do you think I could use frozen berries instead of fresh?

These scones were a hit at my last brunch party! They were light, fluffy, and had a perfect crumb. I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out perfectly.
