Plain scones are a classic and beloved treat that are perfect for breakfast, afternoon tea, or a quick snack. They are easy to make with just a few simple ingredients and can be enjoyed with butter, jam, or cream. This recipe will guide you through the steps needed to bake your own delightful scones.
- Ensure the butter is cold before you start mixing; this will help create a flakier texture.
- Use a light touch when mixing and kneading the dough to avoid overworking and toughening the scones.
- If you don't have self-raising flour, you can make your own by adding 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon of salt for every cup of all-purpose flour.
- To create a nicely browned top, brush the scones with a little milk or beaten egg before baking.
- For uniform scones, use a cookie cutter to shape the dough instead of cutting it by hand.
By following this straightforward recipe, you'll be able to bake a batch of delicious plain scones in no time. Whether enjoyed fresh out of the oven or slightly cooled with your favorite toppings, these scones are sure to be a hit. Happy baking!
