Apple & Blackberry Scones
You really can't beat homemade scones! These are so much better than the ones in the shops and they are dead easy to make. Apple and blackberry is a winning combination too... it'll be a struggle to even let them cool down without tucking in.
Ingredients
- butter (50g)
- plain flour (250g)
- 3 tsp of baking powder
- ½ tsp of salt
- castor sugar (30g)
- sultanas (50g)
- milk (150ml)
- 1 egg
- 2 eating apples
to serve
- clotted cream
- blackberry jam to serve
Recipe
soak the sultanas in the milk.
preheat the oven to 200°C.
peel, core and cut the apples into small dice.
sieve the flour, baking powder and salt into a big bowl.
rub the butter into the flour to resemble breadcrumbs.
stir in the sugar, chopped apples and scoop out the sultanas adding those as well.
make a well in the centre of the mix and pour in the milk, mixing until you have soft dough.
bring it all together until smooth and roll out on a floured surface to 3cm thick.
cut scones out with a cutter (about 5cm across) and lay on floured baking tray.
brush with beaten egg and bake for 16-18 minutes until they sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
cool on a wire rack and serve with cream and jam.
