Instructions

  1. Sift the flour into a bowl and quickly and loosely crumble the butter. Add the salt and gradually stir in the milk.
  2. Rub your hands with flour and carefully knead the soft dough, adding a little more milk as needed. Roll out the dough about the thickness of a finger on a floured board. Quickly cut out the scones, but do not warp the dough, otherwise the scones will deform during baking. Bake the scones on a greased baking sheet in a preheated oven for 12-15 minutes at 220 degrees.
  3. Always prepare scones fresh as they dry out quickly.
  4. Tip: To make fruit cones, add a tablespoon of sugar and two teaspoons of dried fruit before stirring in the milk.
