These are great scones for company, they're really easy and quick to pull together and get eaten in a flash because they are SO good. They are best served hot with jam or marmalade on top. I found this recipe on the web, made a few changes, and have been using it ever since! Ingredients:
2 cups flour |
1 tablespoon sugar |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine |
1/2 cup milk |
1 egg |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425°F. 2. Cover a cookie sheet with wax/parchment paper, or grease it. 3. Combine the sugar, baking powder, salt and flour in a medium sized bowl. 4. Work butter in with hands. add the egg and milk together, mixing until just moist and holding together. 5. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and flatten it into a 1 1/2-inch high circle. 6. Cut out 8 wedges, and place on the cookies sheet about an inch apart. 7. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown. |
