Devonshire Scones

Today many traditional foods are but a pale imitation of their former selves, which is why we are particularly proud of the unswerving quality of Rodda’s Cornish Clotted Cream. Click here to visit roddas.co.uk

Mix 1/2 teaspoon salt into 2 cups (240g) self-rising flour
and rub into 3/4 stick (90g) butter to a crumb-like
consistancy. Whisk 1 egg, 1/2 tablespoon castor sugar
(superfine/ powdered) and 2 tablespoons milk together
and stir into the flour mixture to make a soft dough.
Roll out about 3/4″ (2cm) thick and cut in rounds with a
2″ (5cm) cutter or in triangle if you prefer. Bake in the
centre of a hot oven, 400 to 425F (200 to 220C or gas Mark
6 to 7), for 10 minutes.
