6 steps

Ingredients

2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 pinch salt
30 g butter, cut into small pieces
125 ml milk
125 ml water

Directions

1

Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F.
2

Sift flour, baking powder and salt into a big bowl. Using your finger tips work in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well in the center.
3

Whisk together milk and water and pour into the well reserving some liquid for glazing the scones.
4

Quickly stir until a dough forms.
5

On a lightly floured surface pat down gently and cut out scones (I use a glass of 7.5 cm in diameter). The dough will be kinda sticky, but you should be able to form it without problems. If not, add some more flour.
6

Glaze scones with reserved water-milk-mixture and bake for 10-12 minutes.
