This is the best recipe I have found for plain scones! It is from Flo Bjeilke-Peterson's Country Cooking book, and they come out perect every time. The secret it to hve the tray really hot before you put the scones on. Ingredients:
2 cups self raising flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 tablespoons butter |
1 cup milk |
extra flour, for rolling |
Directions:
1. Sift flour and salt into a bowl.
2. Melt butter and pour into flour.
3. Add milk gradually, stirring with a knife, until you have a moist dough.
4. Turn onto a floured board, knead lightly, then press dough out until it is about 1 inch thick.
5. Cut with a cookie cutter or glass, and place on a hot floured tray, with each scone touching.
6. Bake at 220C for 10-15 minutes.
7. Serve hot with chilled butter, and strawberry jam!
