Swedish Scones

Before breakfast this morning I went for a long walk. When I got back I thought there would be nothing yummier to eat for breakfast than freshly baked warm scones.

 This is a simple recipe found on www.scones.se

Here are the ingredients you will need

300 ml of milk
100 g of butter
7-8 dl of flour
4 teaspoons of baking powder
1 teaspoon of salt


Mix the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl.
Cut the butter into cubes and mix well with your hands into the dry mixture.
Then add the milk and stir until you are able to shape the dough into a form.
Be careful to not over knead it.

Divide the dough into four pieces and flatten them into  round "cake - like" shapes, approximately 12-15 cm in diameter. Cut a cross on the surface and prick the dough several times with a fork.

Place the scone-cakes on baking tray with baking paper, and put them into the preheated oven for about 10 minutes.

Eat whilst they are warm, it's the best. I put cheese and marmalade on mine. :)
Yummy!
Enjoy!
