Things you will need:
- 1 Large Bowl
- a couple of small bowls
- A weighing scales
- A clean surface
- A rolling pin
- A wire rack
- Your Hands!
Ingredients:
For batter
- 12 ounces of Self Raising Flour
- 2 ounces of Castor Sugar
- 4 ounces of Butter
- A pinch of salt
- A little milk
For shine
Because this is a no egg recipe I mixed milk and golden syrup to get a golden finish on top on the scones. Just put a little bit of milk and golden syrup in a bowl and mix. You only need a little because it's only going on top of the scones.
Method:
1. Measure out your Flour and sugar and add them into the large bowl with a pinch of salt.
2. Add the butter in a mix with your hands until it resembles breadcrumbs.
3. Add a little milk and keep adding it until the mixture has become a dough. (DO NOT add a lot of milk or it will be too sticky and won't work! Tip: Rub your hands with flour before this so the dough doesn't stick as much)
4. Put the dough out on to a clean surface and roll until around 1inch thick.
(You can make it thicker if you would like, but you would only get a few scones)
5. Cut your scones out using a cutter.
6. Place them on to a tray (Tip: Spread a little bit of flour on the tray so they don't stick) and dab them with the golden syrup and milk shine mixture.
7. Place in the oven for 15-17 minutes or until golden at 220*C or Gas Mark 5.
8. Once they are cooked, place them on a wire rack to cool. (Tip: Place a tea cloth over them to keep them away from things like flies.)
I hope you enjoyed this recipe and try it out!
