Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 200C (or 180C for a fan-forced oven), and dust a flat surface with a little flour. Line a baking tray with baking paper or dust with a little flour
  2. Sift the flour, salt and baking powder together in a large bowl
  3. Add the milk and cream and combine with a butter knife. Don’t over-work the mixture. Mix only until JUST combined
  4. Tip out onto the floured surface. Knead gently until smooth but again, don’t overwork it.
  5. Shape into a rectangle approximately 2-3cm thick (or cut circles with a scone cutter). If you use a circle cutter, knead the remaining mixture together and cut some more scones
  6. Carefully separate the scones and place on the baking tray. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until just brown on the top.
  7. Allow to cool slightly before serving with Strawberry jam and Chantilly Cream or Lemon Curd and Chantilly Cream
Recipe Notes

If, like me, you’ve forgotten to warm the milk and cream to room temperature before making the scones, simply warm them in the microwave for 30 seconds.
