-------- ------------ --------------------------------
6 oz cold unsalted butter
1 lb self-raising flour -- plus a little extra for dusting
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons sugar
1 Pinch salt
2 large eggs
4 tablespoons milk
6 oz small fresh blueberries -- or dried raisins
2 egg yolks
1/4 teaspoon sweetened condensed milk
1/4 teaspoon oil
Put your butter, flour, baking powder, sugar and a pinch of salt into
a mixing bowl and use your thumbs and forefingers to break up the
butter and rub it into the flour so you get little cornflake-sized
pieces. Make a well in the middle of the dough, add the eggs and
milk, and stir it up with a spatula. Add the blueberries to the
mixture. Add a tiny splash of milk if needed, until you have a soft,
dry dough. Move it around as little as possible to get it looking
like a scruffy mass at this point, you're done. Sprinkle over some
flour, cover the bowl and pop it into the fridge for 15 minutes.
Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface until it's about 1"
thick. With a 2 1/2" round cutter, cut out circles from the dough and
place them upside down on a baking sheet they will rise better that
way. Re-roll any off cuts to use up the dough. Brush the top of each
scone with the the Egg Wash twice and bake in the oven for 15-18
minutes, or until risen and golden. At that point, take them out of
the oven and leave them to cool down a little. Serve with clotted
cream (preferred), fruit jam, lemon curd, or butter.
