Description

Ingredients

• 3 cups self raising flour
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream (not whipped)
• 1 cup cold lemonade (fizzy Lemonade in a bottle e.g. Schweppes)
• Whipped cream
• Jam

Directions

• Preheat oven to 200C/390F.
• Combine the flour, cream and lemonade in a bowl and mix until just combined. Do not over mix, it will make the scones dense! The dough should be soft and fairly sticky.
• Turn out onto a floured surface, and gently pat down to 2.5cm/1.2 thickness.
• Use a 6cm/2.5 round cutter to cut scones. Flour the cutter in between so the dough doesnt stick. I usually get 6 out of the first batch, then I combine and pat out the offcuts to make another 4.
• Optional - brush the tops lightly with milk. This makes the tops nice and golden, and helps smooth the top too.
• Place on a lined or greased tray, slightly touching each other (they help each other rise) and bake for 12 to 15 minutes until golden on top.
• Place on rack to cool. Place tea towel over them to stop the tops from getting crusty.
• Serve with copious amounts of cream and jam, and of course tea!
