Scones are a classic baked treat that are perfect for breakfast or afternoon tea. They're known for their light and fluffy texture, and can be enjoyed plain or with a variety of toppings like jam, clotted cream, or butter. This simple recipe uses basic ingredients that you may already have in your pantry, making it an easy go-to when you're in the mood to bake something delicious.
- Ensure your butter is cold before you start. Keeping the butter cold helps create the flaky texture scones are known for.
- Do not overmix the dough. Overmixing can result in dense scones, so combine ingredients just until they come together.
- If the dough is too dry, add a small amount of milk, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough holds together.
- Use a sharp cutter to cut the scones. Press straight down without twisting to ensure they rise evenly.
- Place the scones close together on the baking sheet to help them rise upwards rather than spreading out.
With just a few simple ingredients and some basic tips, you can make delicious, homemade scones that are perfect for any occasion. Whether enjoyed fresh out of the oven or savored with your favorite toppings, these scones are sure to be a hit with family and friends. Happy baking!
