Basic Scones
At the end of my England time a very English recipe. I head some people complaining that they don’t like Scones because they taste like nothing. Of cause, it is a basic recipe and you have to add something to it, sweet or savory, into the dough (herbs, spices, cheese, fruits, …) or after baking like cream, jam, peanut butter, Nutella when they are still hot so its melts…..
Ingredients: 120 g = 1 cup flour 1 Tsp. Backing powder 2 Tbsp. Butter 70 g Yoghurt (you can used flavored one)
1. Mix the flour with backing powder, then crumble butter into it with your fingers until no big butter blocks remain.
2. Add all yoghurt on top and mix just JUST until combined. No further or the dough becomes sticky and scones will not rise properly.
3. Spread out carefully and cut into shape. You can cut out circles and then knead the dough together again, but the second batch will not be as beautiful as the first. Bake in a preheated oven at 170 C for 15-20 Minutes, depending on size you cut out.
