Dried Fruit Scones
Source of Recipe
internet
List of Ingredients
8 ounces self rising flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 ounces butter
2 tablespoons sugar
3 ounces mixed dried fruit, chopped
1/4 pint milk
milk to glazeRecipe
Preheat oven to 425ºF. Sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl. Rub in the butter until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Stir in the sugar and fruit and add enough milk to mix to a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface, knead lightly and roll out to 3/4-inch thickness. Cut into 2-inch rounds and place on a lightly floured baking sheet. Brush with milk to glaze. Bake for 10 minutes then cool on a wire rack. Serve with butter and jam or clotted cream. Tip: Most scones will keep for a day or two if stored in an airtight container, but are always best reheated in the oven for a few minutes before serving.
