Scones 1
Servings: 5
2 c All-purpose flour
2 T Sugar
1 t Baking powder
3/4 t Salt
6 T Butter/margarine - 3/4 stick
1 ea Egg
2/3 c Milk
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease a large cookie sheet. In a large bowl, use a
fork to mix flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut (do not stir) butter in
until the mixture forms coarse crumbs.
In a cup, mix egg and milk together. Stir milk mixture into the flour mixture
_all at once_ mixing just until ingredients are blended. Drop scone mixture by
scant 1/4-cups about 1" apart on cookie sheet to make 12 scones.
Bake 12-15 minutes or until scones are golden.
Serve them warm or later. To save for later cool the scones on wire racks and
wrap in a single layer of foil. To reheat, warm for 10 minutes or so in a 400
degree oven. About 190 calories each.
