CREAM SCONES

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to moderately hot (190-200 degrees celsius, fan-forced).

• Whisk egg, cream and milk together.
• Pour most of the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Keep a tablespoon or two of the wet ingredients aside.
• Mix ingredients using a butter knife or other flat-bladed knife knife. The mixture should hold together well and be a little sticky to touch. Add a little extra of the wet ingredients if the mixture is too dry.
• Turn onto a lightly floured surface and sprinkle a little extra flour over the mixture.
• Gently knead for 10 seconds. Shape the dough into a round about 2-3 cm thick.
• Use a 5cm (in diameter) round cutter to cut out 12 scones.
• Place the scones, not quite touching, on a greased tray.
• Brush the tops with the remaining wet mixture.
• Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a light golden colour.
• Once baked, transfer to a clean tea towel and wrap the scones before serving warm.
• Enjoy with cream and jam.

SIMPLE SCONES

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• In a medium bowl, mix flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Grate butter into flour mixture on the large holes of a box grater; use your fingers to work in butter (mixture should resemble coarse meal), then stir in raisins.
• In a small bowl, whisk sour cream and egg until smooth.
• Using a fork, stir sour cream mixture into flour mixture until large dough clumps form. Use your hands to press the dough against the bowl into a ball. (The dough will be sticky in places, and there may not seem to be enough liquid at first, but as you press, the dough will come together.)
• Place on a lightly floured surface and pat into a 7- to 8-inch circle about 3/4-inch thick. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tsp. of sugar. Use a sharp knife to cut into 8 triangles; place on a cookie sheet (preferably lined with parchment paper), about 1 inch apart. Bake until golden, about 15 to 17 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes and serve warm or at room temperature.

• divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Make dough to make 4 circles and 16 scones:.
• On a floured surface gently roll one portion at a time into a ball.
• Flatten the ball until your disk is approximately 3/4″ in height.
• Press down the outside of the dough circle so the center is slightly taller.
• Dampen tops of each disk with a 1/2 tsp milk or cream and evenly sprinkle sugar on top of each circle.
