A simple & delicious Fruit Scone recipe - easy, moist and perfect split with jam & cream
Ingredients
- 225 g Self-Raising Flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 25 gram Caster Sugar
- 50 gram Butter chopped
- 1 Large Egg
- Milk
- 100 gram Sultanas
- 25 ml Milk for glazing
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200C fan / 225C / Gas 7
- Grab a baking sheet and either grease or line with baking paper
- In a mixing bowl sift your flour, baking powder and then add your caster suigar and stir
- Next add your chopped chilled butter and rub into your flour mix using your finger tips, until it resembles breadcrumbs
- Add your sultanas and give it a stir
- Next in a measuring jug add your egg and enough milk to make the liquid up to 150ml (150ml should be the total liquid weight including your milk)
- Bring it all together with a knife until it forms a dough, do not overwork it
- Tip your dough onto a floured surface and pat down to 1inch / 2.5 cm thick (do not use a rolling pin)
- Using a 2 inch / 2.5cm cutter stamp out 6 scones and spread them out on your baking sheet (the bits left pull together bake and they are yours :-) )
- Using a pastry brush, brush the tops with milk (do not glaze the sides - this will stop them rising properly)
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until risen and golden brown
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool on a wire tray. Tuck in!
