Categories     Breakfast

Total Time 25 minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 15 minutes

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

250 grams plain flour
20 grams baking powder
5.69 grams salt
50 grams butter
25 grams sugar
125 milliliters milk
1 large egg

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
  • Sift the flour, baking powder and salt through a sieve into a large mixing bowl.
  • Add the cold cubed butter to the mixing bowl. Using a pastry cutter, incorporate the butter into the flour until it is in small crumbs.
  • Whisk the sugar, milk, and egg in a separate bowl. Pour into the dry ingredients and mix gently, just until a soft dough forms. Do not over mix.
  • Press or roll out the dough into a circle on a lightly floured cutting board. The dough should be about 2 cm thick.
  • Using a round cookie cutter, cut out 8 scones, being careful not to twist the cutter.
  • Place the scones on the baking sheet. Brush the tops of the scones with milk.
  • Bake for 12-15 mins until golden brown.

CLASSIC SCONES WITH JAM & CLOTTED CREAM - BBC GOOD FOOD



Classic scones with jam & clotted cream - BBC Good Food image

You can have a batch of scones on the table in 20 minutes with Jane Hornby's storecupboard recipe, perfect for unexpected guests

Provided by Jane Hornby

Categories     Afternoon tea, Breakfast, Snack, Treat

Total Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 10 minutes

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

350g self-raising flour, plus more for dusting
1 tsp baking powder
85g butter, cut into cubes
3 tbsp caster sugar
175ml milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
squeeze lemon juice (see tips below)
beaten egg, to glaze
jam and clotted cream, to serve

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Tip the self-raising flour into a large bowl with ¼ tsp salt and the baking powder, then mix.
  • Add the butter, then rub in with your fingers until the mix looks like fine crumbs. Stir in the caster sugar.
  • Put the milk into a jug and heat in the microwave for about 30 secs until warm, but not hot. Add the vanilla extract and a squeeze of lemon juice, then set aside for a moment.
  • Put a baking tray in the oven. Make a well in the dry mix, then add the liquid and combine it quickly with a cutlery knife – it will seem pretty wet at first.
  • Scatter some flour onto the work surface and tip the dough out. Dredge the dough and your hands with a little more flour, then fold the dough over 2-3 times until it’s a little smoother. Pat into a round about 4cm deep. Take a 5cm cutter (smooth-edged cutters tend to cut more cleanly, giving a better rise) and dip it into some flour. Plunge into the dough, then repeat until you have four scones. You may need to press what’s left of the dough back into a round to cut out another four.
  • Brush the tops with a beaten egg, then carefully arrange on the hot baking tray. Bake for 10 mins until risen and golden on the top. Eat just warm or cold on the day of baking, generously topped with jam and clotted cream. If freezing, freeze once cool. Defrost, then put in a low oven (about 160C/140C fan/gas 3) for a few minutes to refresh.
