Scones
Ingredients
- 440 g self-raising flour, plus extra for dusting
- 2 tbsp caster sugar
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 60 g butter, cut into pieces
- 320 g buttermilk
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 220°C. Line a baking tray (30 x 40 cm) with baking paper and set aside.
- Place flour, sugar, salt and butter into mixing bowl and mix 5 sec/speed 8, or until mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
- Add buttermilk and combine 20 sec/speed 5, then knead Dough Mode/20 sec.
- Transfer dough onto a silicone bread mat or floured work surface and press out to a 2 cm thickness. Dip a biscuit or scone cutter (6-7 cm) into flour and cut out scones (approx. 10). Repeat until all dough has been used.
- Place scones onto prepared tray, so that each scone is touching the next, then bake for 12-15 minutes (220°C), or until lightly golden.
- Allow to cool on tray for 5 minutes before transferring onto a wire rack. Serve warm, or allow to cool completely before placing into a sealable container to store until ready to serve.
