Cook Time25 min

Ingredients

  • 3 cups self-raising flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 75g cold butter, finely diced
  • 1 tbs caster sugar
  • 1 cup Creative Gourmet frozen Blueberries
  • 3/4 cup cream + extra for brushing
  • ½ cup milk
  • Whipped cream, to serve

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. Line a baking tray with non-stick baking paper.
  2. Sift flour, baking powder and salt into a large bowl. Using your fingertips, rub butter into flour until mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Stir in sugar and frozen blueberries. Make a well in the centre.
  3. Mix cream and milk in a jug. Pour into dry ingredients. Using a flat-bladed knife, mix until a rough dough forms.
  4. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and gently bring dough together. Pat out dough until 3cm thick. Using a 5cm floured cookie cutter, cut out rounds and arrange about 1cm apart on baking tray. Lightly brush with cream.
  5. Bake for 20-25 minutes until risen and golden. Remove scones from tray and wrap in a clean tea towel. Serve warm scones with whipped cream.
