Scone Recipe (Country Woman's Association)

Created by Tisme on September 25, 2023

Step 1: Set oven to 220C.
Step 2: Sift flour and salt really well together.
Step 3: Add sufficient enough milk and cream gradually, to make a firm but not dry mixture (just enough milk to make a dough, which is easy to handle and not too sticky, without to much extra flour on the board).
Step 4: Note ~ The suggestion is to use an old-style bone-handled, flat-bladed knife – not a spoon or electric mixer – to blend flour, milk, cream and salt.
Step 5: Place dough on slightly floured board and roll the mixture one way lightly; pat dough to 2 cm thick (3/4”).
Step 6: Cut and place scone shapes on a cold tray and brush tops with a little milk or melted butter.
Step 7: Bake in a hot oven set at 220C for 8 to 10 minutes.
Step 8: Scones are best served warm, cut in half and served with jam & a lashing of fresh cream.
