How to make Workbridge Lemon and Blueberry Scones
by Dale Pursglove, Senior Vocational Skills Instructor at Workbridge coffee shop.
For this recipe you will need:
- 400g of self-raising flour
- 100g of unsalted butter
- 300ml of milk
- 60g of caster sugar
- The rinds of 2 lemons
- 150g of blueberries
Let's get baking...
- Heat the oven up to 160C.
- Pour the flour onto a clean work surface.
- Add the sugar and the butter to the flour.
- Knead the mixture together and keep going until you reach a bread crumb consistency.
- Add the lemon rinds and blueberries into the mixture.
- Add the milk in small glugs and continue to knead until it forms a doughy texture.
- Use a cookie or pastry cutter and cut out six circles. The scones should be around 2 and a half cm thick. Remember, the scones will rise in the oven!
- Add the scones to the oven for 10 minutes.
- Check the scones and if they require a little more time, keep them in the oven for a further 5 minutes.
- After that, you're done! Leave them to cool and enjoy on their own, or with jam and cream.
