8 ingredients
4 steps

Ingredients

  • 3 2/3 cup self-rising flour
  • 1 1/2 oz (about 2) pitted dates, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup dried apricots, finely chopped
  • 1/3 cup dried figs, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp pumpkin- or apple-pie spice
  • 1 cup lemonade
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp milk, for brushing

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 425°F. Sift flour into a large bowl. Stir in dates, apricots, figs and mixed spice.
  2. 2
    Mix lemonade and cream together; pour into flour mixture and, using a flat-bladed knife, mix gently until just combined. Dough will have a sticky consistency.
  3. 3
    Turn dough out on to a lightly floured surface. Quickly bring dough together to form a 1 1/2-inch-thick round. Using a floured 2-inch cutter, cut 16 rounds from dough.
  4. 4
    Place scones on a lightly floured baking tray, just touching side by side. Brush tops with milk. Bake for 12-15 mins, until golden. Serve warm.
