THE DAY MY MOUTH WAS WATERY

On Wednesday the day my mouth was so watery spit could of 

came out of my mouth because there was something so sweet

and creamy in front of me....

A scone!    

• 3 cups Edmonds standard flour

• 6 tsp Edmonds baking powder             

• ¼ tsp salt                                            

• extra Meadow Fresh milk

• 75g butter

• 1 to 1½ cups Meadow Fresh milk, approximately

• METHOD`

  1. ​Preheat the oven to 220ºC. Grease or flour a baking tray.
     
     

  2. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl. Rub in the butter with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
     
     

  3. Add the milk and quickly mix with a round-bladed table knife to a soft dough. For light and tender scones the mixture should be quite soft and a little sticky. Scrape the dough onto the floured baking tray and flour the top.
     
     

  4. Working quickly, pat the dough out to 2cm thickness and with a floured knife cut it into 12 even-sized pieces, then separate the scones to allow 2cm space between them. Brush the tops with milk.
     
     

  5. Bake for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Place on a wire rack to cool, wrapped in a clean tea towel to keep them soft.
