Scones are a beloved treat that can be enjoyed at any time of the day, whether for breakfast, afternoon tea, or a snack. This recipe will guide you through the steps to create perfect, fluffy scones using just a few simple ingredients.
- Ensure the butter is cold before you start. Cold butter is essential for achieving a flaky texture.
- Do not overmix the dough. Overmixing can result in tough scones. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a light hand when patting out the dough. Pat, don't roll, to maintain the dough's airiness.
- For an extra golden top, brush the scones with a little milk or beaten egg before baking.
- Bake the scones immediately after cutting them out. Letting the dough sit can affect the rise.
By following these steps and tips, you'll be able to create delightful, fluffy scones every time. Serve them warm with clotted cream and your favorite jam for a truly classic experience. Enjoy your baking!
