Scones - yields approx. 8 medium sized scones
1 cup flour Pinch of salt 5 teaspoons sugar 2 teaspoon baking powder
Mix together dry ingredients.
85g plain yogurt 1 egg
Whisk egg and yogurt together.
Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix together till soft dough forms. The dough does not need to be smooth. It just needs to not stick to the bowl.
Section dough into 8 pieces. Roll into roundish balls and pat for a flat surface. Place on baking tray lined with baking paper.
Brush scones with milk (alternatively if you prefer a more golden top, brush with egg). Bake at 180˚c for 12 - 15 minutes.
Serve with jam of choice and whipped cream for a sweet treat or try it savory with some butter and cheese. There are so many different combinations - go crazy.
Best enjoyed warm.
