I love waking up late on Sunday’s and having lots of big warm cuddles, followed by a tasty brunch. This morning scones were the pick, very basic with only 4 ingredients, they’re so yummy served warm with jam and whipped cream.

Ingredients

2 cups self raising flour
2 tbsp caster sugar
50 g butter (chopped)
1 cup milk
jam & whipped cream to serve

Method

Preheat oven to 200 degrees C. And a little bit of flour over a baking tray.

Sift self raising flour into a bowl, then add sugar. Using your fingertips rub chopped up butter into the flour until it looks like fine breadcrumbs.

Slowly incorporate the milk, using a knife to mix. Once it comes together, turn onto a lightly floured bench and gently knead dough.

Using your palm flatten the dough to 2 1/2 cm thickness. Cut out the scones into 5cm rounds.

Place on baking tray and bake for 15 minutes or until golden and cooked through.

Serve warm with jam and whipped cream.
