How to Make British Herb Scones Biscuits
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Lightly grease a baking tray and dust it with flour.
- Sift 2 cups all-purpose flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt into a large bowl.
- Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs (such as rosemary, thyme, and chives).
- Gradually add 3/4 cup milk, mixing gently with a spatula or knife until the dough just comes together. Avoid overmixing!
- Add a teaspoon of milk at a time if the dough is too dry. Do not overwork the dough.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently shape it into a round.
- Lightly flour a rolling pin and roll the dough to 1/2 inch thickness.
- Use a 2-inch biscuit cutter to cut out scones. Regather scraps, re-roll, and cut out more scones.
- Place scones onto the prepared baking tray and brush the tops lightly with a little extra milk.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and well-risen.
- Remove scones to a wire rack to cool slightly.
- Serve warm with beetroot relish, soured cream, and fresh mint, or simply enjoy with butter. Store leftovers in the freezer and reheat gently in the microwave.
