How to make Perfect Fluffy Scones

A step by step with secrets behind the perfect fluffiest scones that you would find at 5-star establishments (like Harrods). The tips is not what you might have been told and relies on adequate mixing and more importantly Resting of the dough. Vegan substitution optional RECIPE Plain flour 300g Caster sugar 25g Baking powder 18g Fine salt 1g (pinch) Butter, unsalted 85g - You can use your fave vegan block/stick butter Milk 175g - You can also do half milk and half buttermilk or use PLANT milk! 1. Place dry ingredients in a bowl and mix to combine. You won’t need to sift the flour. 2. Cut your butter into one centimetre cubes and place into flour mixture 3. Use a rubbing motion, like rubbing your hands together, mixing the flour and rubbing together to rub the flour and butter until you reach a breadcrumb consistency. 4. Add milk and use a spatula to mix a dough, and continue mixing until it comes together with no dry mix left 5. Pour the dough into a lightly floured bench and knead the dough. A lot of recipes call for little to no beading but I find it makes a crumbly scone. You need it to be developed a bit so that it is able to capture the gas created by the baking powder being activated. You want the top of the dough ball to be smooth 5. Rest for 15-20 minutes on bench, wrapped in cling film to rest so the scones cut nicey and stay round 6. Lightly flour the bench + the top of the dough ball and turn over so the smooth side is on the bench 7. Roll in both directions to 2-2.5cm thick and very lightly flour the top of the dough - this will mean you don’t have to dust your cutter in between cuts. 8. Cut decisively with a 6cm round cutter, and then carefully turn over the scone, and place it on the tray - this gives you a nice sharp edge 9. Brush egg yolk that has been whisked with a pinch of sugar and salt - for nice consistency - neatly across the top of the scone so it's a perfect golden circle and rest for 1 hour!!! This will make the rise perfectly and evenly. 10. Half an hour before baking, preheat the oven to 180*C fan forced and place rack in the middle of the oven 11. Bake the scones for 10-11 mins until the tops are nice and golden!
