British refreshments--Scones
Overview
Scones originating from the UK can be easily made without fermentation, so they are called quick bread. Baked scones are spread with jam and eaten with tea, which is a British tea snack. The baked scones are crispy and become soft in texture after a day or two.

Ingredients
Steps
-
Chop the butter and add high-gluten flour, low-gluten flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt into a container.
-
Combine butter, flour and other ingredients, then beat with a whisk at the highest setting (it is best to beat with a food processor)
-
Make a small well in the middle of the beaten dough and add milk.
-
When the milk is absorbed by the dough, use a rubber spatula to mix the dough evenly.
-
Put the mixed dough into a plastic bag, press it into a ball with your hands, and place it in the refrigerator to rest for 30 minutes.
-
Spread a layer of plastic cloth on the board, put the dough on it, cover it with another layer of plastic cloth, and use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a thickness of 2 cm
-
Use a mold to cut into 5cm circles (I don’t have a mold and use a measuring spoon instead)
-
Brush milk on the surface to turn the baked color yellow
-
Bake in a preheated oven at 190 degrees for 25-30 minutes.
