Author: Kathrin @ ginger, lemon & spice
Recipe type: Breakfast, Teatime
Cuisine: Irish
Serves: 12
Ingredients
- 450 g flour
- 1 sachet baking powder (1 Tbsp)
- 50 g sugar
- 50 g softened margarine
- a pinch of salt
- 300 ml milk
- 100 g of raisins
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 220° C.
- Mix all the ingredients together, except the raisins, they should be added last. I just use a fork to work the dough. It should still be wet but dry enough to handle!
- Just use two tablespoons to form big balls and put them on a baking sheet covered with baking paper.
- Bake the scones for 12-15 minutes. They are ready if the top and bottom is golden - don't bake them too long! Enjoy :)
Notes
You can leave the raisins out if you don't like them or substitute with nuts or other dried fruits! Serve the scones with butter, whipped cream & jam! In the pictures I served them with lemon curd.
