Buttermilk: Buttermilk is one of my favourite ingredients for cakes, sponges and of course scones! Like yoghurt and sour cream, this acidic ingredient brings a pleasant tang and also helps tenderize gluten, giving the scones a softer texture and more body. You can also use half buttermilk and half milk for a lighter scone. Tip the dough onto a lightly floured bench and knead the dough. A lot of recipes call for little to no kneading but I find it makes a pretty crumbly scone. You need the dough to be developed slightly so that it can capture the gas created by the baking powder being activated. Raisins or sultanas: I like adding fruit to half of my scones, but you can leave them all plain if you prefer. Remember to soak your raisins or sultanas in strongly brewed earl grey tea for 30 minutes. Add the cold cubed butter and paddle everything until your mix resembles breadcrumbs. It will take around 5 minutes in the standing mixer and 10 minutes if you are rubbing the butter with the flour by hand.

Freezing instructions: you can freeze the unbaked scone circles, and when you fancy take some out, let them thaw on a tray lined with paper, eggwash them and bake. You can also just freeze completely baked scones, and let them thaw to room temperature when you would like to eat them. Caster sugar: You might think there is not much sugar going into the actual scone mix but remember that once the scones are baked we will top them with jam and clotted cream…Yum! Definitely! If you use dried fruit like raisins, sultanas or currants make sure that you soak them in your favourite hot tea for half an hour, any more would make them too soft and mushy. You can also use cranberries or golden raisins and as they are already soft fruits, there is no need for soaking. Split the dough. Roll half of the dough into a smooth ball; you want the top of the dough ball to be smooth. Add the raisins or sultanas to the other half and use a bench scraper to incorporate the fruit. Cover both dough balls with cling film and rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.The secret lies in its tightly coiled wires. Each of these coils acts like a miniature whisk in its own right, so whipping and mixing is fast and effortless. Yet the Magic Whisk is so light, it’s never a strain on your hands, and it fits in cups and jugs that are too narrow for normal whisks. Is it magic? Is it science? Who cares, the results are delicious. We deliver to most Home Hardware Stores. Please view our store locator to find your local Home Hardware store. Prevost, Dinorah (13 May 2015).

You need the dough to be developed slightly so that it can capture the gas created by the baking powder being activated.
