3 steps

Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup flour Unbleached
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
  • salt To Taste
  • 4 tablespoons butter 1/2 Stick
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 sweet onion small chopped
  • olive oil

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 450F. Lightly grease a baking sheet and set aside. Sift together the flour, soda, cream of tartar and salt. Using a pastry blender or your hands, cut in the butter (or pulse in a food processor) until the mixture looks like coarse, grainy crumbs.
  2. 2
    Pour the milk in a well in the center and mix until a soft elastic dough is formed. Knead the dough lightly on a floured surface until smooth. Roll or press the dough out until it is 3/4 inch thick. (If the dough is too thin the scone won't rise properly.)
  3. 3
    Cut into 2 1/2 or 3-inch rounds with a cookie cutter or a glass and bake on prepared sheet for about 10 minutes or until they rise and are golden.
