Kbb#25 : Scones


My lovely online baking club, Klub Berani Baking is having it’s 4th birthday, time surely flies when you are having fun. Felt that it was just yesterday when we celebrated it’s 3rd birthday. Anyway this year is my 3rd year joining the club and although sometimes I struggle to meet the deadlines (blush) but I still enjoy it, the challenges, the togetherness, the chit chat amongst members. Happy Birthday dear KBB, here to many more years to come! And to celebrate it let’s savour this lovely scones with cream and jam and not forgetting tea with milk and sugar. Cheers!

These scones were easy peasy to make. Before making them without having read the recipe I bought eggs because I assumed one would always need eggs for baking. But it turned out I didn’t need it at all. Total 30 minutes from gathering the ingredients, mixing the dough and baking, tada I got 12 lovely buttery scones. I reckon you should try it as well. Then perhaps you would feel as if you were dining like a royal with the Queen herself. 😉

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups plain flour
  • 6 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 75 g butter
  • 1 -1 1/2 cup milk
  • extra milk

Directions:

  • Sift flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl.
  • Cut butter in until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.
  • Add milk and mix quickly with a knife to a soft dough.
  • Knead a few times.
  • Lightly dust an oven tray with flour.
  • Press scone dough out onto this.
  • Cut into 12 even-sized pieces.
  • Leave a 2 cm space between scones.
  • Brush tops with milk.
  • Bake at 220C for 10 minutes or until golden brown.
