Ingredienser

MUM’S SCONES WITH JAM & CREAM

50 ml cream

Approx. 250 ml milk

Strawberry jam

250 ml cream (approx. 35% fat), whipped

Instruktioner

Heat oven to 180°C fan.

Rub butter into flour, add salt.

Add the 50 ml cream and most of the milk. Using Mum’s butter-knife trick, cut through gently, adding a little more milk if needed.

You want a soft, moist dough — not wet and definitely not dry.

Turn onto a lightly floured bench and bring together gently. Roll or pat to about 3 cm / 1¼ inch thick.

Cut into rounds and gently reshape if needed.

Place on a lined tray and bake for 18–20 minutes, until risen and golden.

Cool between clean tea towels to stop the scones from getting hard — just like mum always did 🤍

Split and fill generously with strawberry jam and softly whipped cream.

Jam then cream… or cream then jam? 😁🤍#scones #mum #1mviews #celebration #thankyou you
