How to Make Fluffy Scones
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, sift together 225g all-purpose flour, 4 tsp baking powder, and 1/2 tsp salt.
- Using your fingertips, gently rub 55g cold unsalted butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 150ml milk and 2 tbsp cold water. Reserve 1 tbsp of the milk mixture for glazing.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, gently mixing with a fork until a soft dough just forms. Do not overmix!
- Lightly flour a clean surface. Turn the dough out onto the surface and gently pat it down to about 2cm thickness. Use a 5cm cookie cutter (or knife) to cut out scones.
- The dough will be slightly sticky, but avoid adding too much extra flour. Gently transfer the scones to the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush the tops of the scones with the reserved milk mixture.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and well-risen.
