scones

If you look through my archives you'll see several many recipes for scones.

I've talked about these scones before here, but somehow never shared the recipe.

Here goes: Scones adapted from "O-uchi de cafe"
180 grams flour
8 grams baking powder
20 grams sugar
55 grams unsalted butter
30 cc milk
30 grams yogurt
1/2 egg

Cut butter into flour and baking powder
Add sugar, milk, yogurt and egg
Mix until dough comes together, knead it a little
Let sit in refrig for 30 minutes
Bake in 180C (350C) oven for 15 minutes

NOTES: the recipe says you can make about 20 but I came out with 14 using a 4 centimeter round cutter. They were kinda light when they came out of the oven, so I put them in the toaster for 3 minutes. With some fig jam and a cup of tea they were the perfect afternoon treat.

Mmmmmm...you've inspired me to make scones for my knitting group on Friday...love them fresh out of the oven!

In that case I would need to double this recipe because atleast 5 out of that 14 would be gone in 10 minutes. It is so soup and hot pastry weather right now.
