The lightest scones I ever had, but be careful it requires a light hand. Don't overmix and knead the dough too much or they will turn out very tough. Undermix in better.Use only a small amount of flour on the kneding board and knead lightly until very smooth.Add a little sugar to take away any floury taste. Before baking, brush top with milk for golden shiny tops. Ingredients:
2 cups self-raising flour |
1 pinch salt |
30 g butter, cut into small pieces |
1/2 cup milk |
1/2 cup water |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 220°C Sift flour and salt . Add butter and rub using your fingertips.
2. Combine milk and water. Make a well in the center of the flour. Pour liquid all at once. Mix quickly to a soft dough.
3. Knead lightly. Press or roll out to form a round about 2 cm thick.
4. Cut using a round cutter and place on a greased oven tray and glaze with milk.
5. Bake for 10-12 min or until scones sound hollow when tapped.
