Cream and Jam Scones Recipe

We all know what Wednesdays mean, right? Of course I am talking about the excitement of another installment of Great British Bake Off! So in the spirit of all things GBBO I thought I would share a little typical British baking recipe. You can’t get more British than a good scone with jam and cream along side a cuppa, right? Apologies to those from across the waters who have no idea what I am talking about! Anyway wherever you are from I encourage you to try this fab recipe and release your inner british-ness…?

Ingredients

225g self-raising flour

40g butter

25g caster sugar

150ml milk

Strawberry Jam

Whipped Cream

Method

Firstly, pre-heat your oven to 220C/Gas mark 7.

Then, mix the flour and butter.

Then, add in the sugar and milk until a soft dough is formed.

On a floured surface, knead the dough and roll out to around a 2cm thickness.

Using a cutter, cut out scones until the dough is used up.

Then place on a lined baking tray.

Brush a little bit of milk over the tops of the scones.

Then bake for 15 minutes until risen and a golden colour.

Are you a fan of scones?
