Scones

Scone Recipe
(I halved the initial recipe)
Makes- 6
Cooking Time- 10 to 15 minutes

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups self-raising flour
1/2 tbs caster sugar
40g butter cubed at room temperature
1/2 cup milk

1. Preheat oven to 200 C. Combined the self-raising flour and sugar in a bowl and use your fingertips to rub in the cubed butter until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.


2. Make a well in the centre of bowl and add the milk all at once. Use a knife to combine and until it beings to hold together. Make sure you do not over mix. Once a dough is formed, bring together with hands and knead gently 4/5 times on a lightly floured surface.


3. Use a rolling pin to roll out dough untill about 2cm in thickness. Using a scone cutter, cut out the scones using a straight down motion. Place in baking tray at about 1cm apart.

4. Cook scones for about 15 minutes and then they're ready to be eaten with jam and cream! *licks lips*

I didn't have any jam or cream and was lazy to go out to buy. Instead, I ate my scones with ice-cream and maple syrup. A weird combination but it still tasted good.
