Scones

post-scones_3000x2000_1kWhat You’ll Need:

  • 240ml Original Almond Breeze®
  • Plain flour, for dusting
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 375g self-raising flour
  • 1 tbsp. crème fraîche
  • 80g butter, softened

To serve

  • Jam and cream

What To Do:

  • Preheat the oven to 220°C. Lightly dust plain flour over a flat baking tray. Sift self-raising flour into a large bowl then add baking soda.
  • Using your fingertips, rub butter into flour. The mixture will be ready when it resembles breadcrumbs.
  • Make a well in the centre and add Almond Breeze®. Stir with a flat-bladed knife until mixture makes a soft dough. Pour in the crème fraîche.
  • Turn mixture onto a lightly floured bread board. Knead gently until smooth – remember doing this too long will make your scones tough.
  • Pat dough into a 2cm-thick round. Cut out 16 rounds using a 5cm round cutter.
  • Lay scones 1cm apart onto a prepared baking tray. Sprinkle over a little plain flour.
  • Bake for 20 minutes. Put scones on a wire rack.
  • Serve warm with jam and cream.
