My Favorite British Cream Scones

My Favorite British Cream Scones


1. Preheat oven to 425°F

2. Stir flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl.

3. Stir in any additions.

4. Pour in 1 1/4 cups cream and stir to incorporate all the flour mixture. If you can't incorporate all the flour in 10-15 strokes, drizzle in a bit more cream ( about 1 T extra).

5. Turn the dough out on a floured surface and knead gently once or twice to bring together.

6. Pat into a half-inch-thick round and cut into wedges with a floured knife, or cut with a floured biscuit cutter.

7. (This will make 8 or so 3-inch round scones or around 15 2-inch round.) Place on a baking sheet and bake until just golden and firm on top, about 15 minutes depending on size.
