My Favourite Homemade Scone Recipe

Nothing beats a warm, buttery scone fresh from the oven — especially with a cup of tea. 🤍

Here’s my simple homemade scone recipe, perfect for a cosy afternoon bake. Soft, tender and just sweet enough to enjoy with jam, cream, or simply on its own. ✨

Ingredients:
• 300g plain flour
• 60g sugar
• 2 tsp baking powder
• ¼ tsp salt
• 60g butter
• 100g milk
• 1 egg

Method:
Sift the dry ingredients, rub in the butter, then gently mix in the milk and egg. Reserve a little of the mixture for brushing the tops. Chill the dough for 30–60 minutes, shape to about 2.5cm thick, cut into rounds and bake at 170°C for approximately 15 minutes, or until lightly golden.
