4cm round cutter
6. Gradually stir in the milk to form a soft dough.

(optional)
8. Cut the dough into rounds and place on the baking sheet.
Palette knife or fish slice

Weighing scales
Ingredients
9. Collect any dough ‘trimmings’ together and roll out again. Cut out the remaining
rounds. You should make around 10 scones.
10.Brush the scones with a little milk and bake for 10-12 minutes, until the scones have
risen and turned golden. If you are using a hob to cook the scones, roll them until
they are around 1.5cm thick and do not brush with milk. Heat the griddle pan or
frying pan over a medium heat. Place the scones in the pan and cook for 4 minutes.
Use a palette knife or fish slice to turn them over and cook for another 4 minutes.
Make sure the pan is not too hot otherwise they will burn before they cook.
