Simple Stupid Scone's

makes: 10-12

cooks in: 12-15 minutes

the ingredients

3 ½ cups (525g) Self raising flour

1 cup (250ml) cream

1 cup (250ml) lemonade

lets have some fun

Pre-heat oven to 220 C for 15 minutes.

Place flour into a medium bowl and make a well in the center. Add cream & lemonade, stir with a spatula until dough just starts to come together (don't over mix). Turn mixture onto a lightly floured surface, gently bring together using extra flour if needed. Flatten dough with the palm of your hand until dough is 2-3cm thick. Use a 6.5cm cookie cutter to cut scones, brush with milk. Place scones in saute pan, 1cm apart.

Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden.

Serve with your favourite strawberry jam and freshly whipped cream and some nice bubbly for something special.
