them up a bit with the inclusion of sugar and fruits. Nowadays, scones can be
sweet, savory, herbal and/or cheesy; they can be served at any meal, or just
hot cups of tea with warm scones to munch on at our leisure. We put on our
2 and ¾ cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp. baking powder
½ tsp. baking soda
½ tsp. salt
½ cup cold, unsalted butter, cubed
1 large egg, beaten
2/3 cup milk
Preheat oven to 400F;
spray a large baking sheet with nonstick baking spray; or use a nonstick baking
sheet. Parchment paper works well is you
do not want to use the spray, or do not have nonstick baking sheets.
In a large bowl, sift
together the flour, baking powder, baking salt and salt; work butter, with
fork, pastry cutter or hands, into the dry ingredients until it becomes
crumbly.
In a small bowl, mix
together the egg and milk; make a well in the dry ingredients and pour liquid
into the well. Mix together thoroughly until the dough can be shaped into a
ball.
On a lightly floured
board, roll out the dough to ½” thickness; mark out wedges with a knife or use pastry
or biscuit cutters for rounder scones. An ice cream scoop can also be used with the
dough for a more rustic look to the scones.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
