Directions:
- Whisk the first 7 ingredients together in a bowl.
- Work in 1/2 cup cold butter until the mixture is unevenly crumbly.
- Add 3/4 cup cold milk and 1/2 teaspoon lime oil (if using).
- Stir just until the dough is cohesive.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, shape it into a rough ball, and roll or pat it into an 8″ round.
- Patting the dough into a lightly greased 8″ round cake pan is an easy way to make a nice, neat round.
- If you’ve patted the dough into a pan, turn the pan over and rap it sharply to drop the dough onto a lightly floured surface.
- Score it into 8 wedges.
- Brush with milk, and sprinkle with coarse white sparkling sugar, if desired.
- Transfer the wedges to the sheet, separating them by about 1″ at the outer edge.
- Place the scones in the freezer for 15 minutes; this will help them rise higher.
- While the scones are chilling, preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Bake the scones until they puff up and begin to brown, 16 to 20 minutes.
- Remove them from the oven, and cool briefly on the pan before transferring to a rack.
- Serve warm, or at room temperature. Wrap any cooled leftovers airtight, and store at room temperature for several days; freeze for longer storage.
