3 ingredient scones

Who can resist freshly baked scones straight out of the oven slathered in good quality jam and cream? These &#39;magic&#39; lemonade scones are made with only 3 ingredients - seriously, just self raising flour, lemonade (lemon soda in the US) and cream - in just 20 minutes. Just delicious!

'Magic' 3 Ingredient Lemonade Scones

flour

salt ((optional))

thick cream (Double, thickened, heavy cream depending on where you live.)

strawberry jam and whipped cream

Line baking tray and pre-heat oven.

Line a baking tray with baking paper and pre-heat the oven to 220C/430F.

Sift flour into bowl.

Sift the flour into a medium to large bowl. Add the pinch of salt if using.

Combine lemonade with cream, pour into flour, mix together until you have a ball of dough.

Stir the lemonade and cream together, then pour into the flour. Gently fold everything together until just combined. Then bring dough together into a ball with your hands (it will be soft and a bit sticky).

Pat dough down and cut out rounds with pastry cutter.

With floured hands, pat dough down onto a lightly floured surface so that it’s about 3 cm thick (1 inch). Then use a small round pastry cutter (2.5 inches/6cm) to cut out rounds. Keep gathering the dough back up and patting it down again. You should get 8 to 10 scones.

Put scones on baking tray and bake for 12 to 15 minutes.

Place the scones on the baking tray so that they’re close but not touching (1 to 2cm apart). Brush the tops with a little extra cream thinned with water if you like. Then bake for around 12 to 15 minutes until nicely risen and lightly golden on top.
