Basic Scones

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 400u00b0F. Grease and line a baking pan with parchment paper.

2. 2

   Sift flour into a large bowl. Rub in butter to make fine crumbs. Add milk. Stir until it forms a soft dough, adding 1-2 tbsp more milk, if needed. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead briefly until smooth, then shape into a 3/4 inch-thick round. Using a 2 inch round cookie cutter dipped into flour, cut rounds from dough. Place scones side by side on prepared pan. Brush tops with additional milk to glaze.

3. 3

   Bake for 12-15 mins or until golden and well risen. Serve scones with jam and cream.
