We enjoyed a treat from our family heritage this week.
The boys cooking club made these scones and ate them with cream, strawberry jam, and honey, with a cup of milk on the side.
Easy British Scones
Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 pinch salt
1/4 cup margarine
1/8 cup white sugar
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 pinch salt
1/4 cup margarine
1/8 cup white sugar
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons milk
Directions:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Sift the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda
and salt into a bowl.
Rub in the butter until the mixture resembles
fine breadcrumbs. Stir in the sugar and enough milk to mix to a soft dough.
Turn onto a floured surface, knead lightly and
roll out to a 3/4-inch thickness. Cut into 2-inch rounds and place on the
prepared baking sheet. Brush with milk to glaze.
Bake at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for 10
minutes then cool on a wire rack. Serve with butter or clotted cream and jam.
