Recipe
Ingredients
- 3 cups wholemeal self-raising flour, sifted
- 75g butter, chilled & cubed
- 1 tbsp culinary lavender
- 1 cup of milk
- 1 egg, beaten
- Jam & double cream, to serve
Method
- Preheat the oven to 200°C.
- Combine the flour and butter in a large mixing bowl. Use your fingers to rub the butter into the flour until it resembles breadcrumbs.
- Add the lavender, then fold in the milk using a dinner knife and knead softly until smooth. If the dough feels too dry at this point, add more milk.
- Prepare a lightly floured surface and knead the scone mixture. Roll into a circle of at least 2cm thick. Cut out scone rounds using a 5cm cutter.
- Place scone rounds on a baking tray lined with baking paper, leaving a small gap between each one. Brush each scone with egg wash.
- Bake in the oven for 10–12 mins until golden.
- Allow to cool slightly on a cooling rack and serve with jam and cream.
