GRANDMA'S SCONES - EASY SCONE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 230˚C / 450˚F and line a tray with baking paper.
• Place the flour, sugar and salt into a large mixing bowl. Add the chopped butter and dig in with your hands. Mix the butter and flour together with your fingers until you get a crumbly texture with no lumps.
• Make a well in the centre and pour in the milk. Use a butter knife or dough scraper to 'cut' the flour in all directions until the dough just starts to come together into a sticky dough ball.
• Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Gently press out into a flat 2 cm / 1 in thick circle.
• Transfer dough onto a lined baking sheet and cut into 8 equal pieces just like a pizza. OR use a scone or cookie cutter to cut into shapes. Dust the cutter each time before pressing, and don't twist when pulling it out. Transfer to the baking tray.
• Lightly brush the top of each scone with milk to glaze. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Optional: Serve with jam, cream and butter.

GRANDMA'S BUTTERMILK SCONES

Steps:

• Sift together first 4 ingredients in a large bowl.
• Mix melted butter and enough buttermilk in a measuring cup to make 2 cups of liquid, dissolve baking soda in the liquid.
• Slowly work the liquid into the dry ingredients until a nice dough forms (you may not need all the milk so do this in stages). The dough should be easily handled and not sticky.
• Divide dough in half and shape into a round ball.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out to 1/2" thick round and cut into pie shaped wedges (a pizza cutter works good for this).
• Fry in a dry electric pan at 350°F (no butter/pam/oil please) until a nice golden brown.
• Flip and brown other side.
• Serve warm. (Can be reheated in a toaster).
• Alternatively, you can roll the doll out and use a glass to cut rounds. Grandma did that sometimes too (while I snuck behind and stole the scraps before she could roll them out again lol).
