How to Make Snowflake Scones

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 tbsp baking powder, 1/2 tsp salt.
  3. Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg and 1/2 cup milk.
  5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat into a 1-inch thick circle.
  7. Use a 2-inch biscuit cutter or a sharp knife to cut out scones. Reroll scraps and cut out more scones.
  8. Place scones onto the prepared baking sheet.
  9. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  10. Let cool slightly on a wire rack before serving with butter and jam.
