Ingredients
Method
1.Preheat oven to very hot, 220°C. Lightly grease a scone tray. Sift flour into a large bowl. Add butter. Rub in lightly, using fingertips.
2.Make a well in the centre of the flour. Pour in combined milk and water, all at once, reserving about 1 tablespoon. Using a bread and butter knife, mix quickly to a soft, sticky dough. Do not over-mix.
3.Turn onto a lightly floured surface. Knead lightly. Press or roll out to form a round of about 2cm thick. Cut into wedges, using a floured knife, or rounds. Place close together on prepared tray. Brush with reserved liquid.
4.Bake for 10-12 minutes until scones sound hollow when tapped. Cool on a wire rack. Serve with jam and cream.
A pinch salt can be added to the flour when sifting. This is optional, but it enhances the flavour. Scones can be made in a food processor using the “pulse” action.
