Instructions
-
Make the dough
- In a mixing bowl, stir flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and pepper until well combined.
- Add in the butter and mix using a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture is a rough crumbly texture but pieces of butter are still visible.
- Stir in the chopped white chocolate to coat with the flour.
- In a separate bowl whisk the egg then whisk in the milk and vanilla.
- Add the milk mixture to the flour and stir until the dough just begins to come together, and then turn it out onto a work surface (sprinkle with generous amount of floor to prevent the dough from sticking on to the surface).
-
Knead the dough
- Using your hands, flatten and fold the dough 2 or 3 times, until the dough is an even texture.
- Form the dough into two discs about 2.5 cm (1-inch) high. Cut each disc into 6 wedges.
-
Bake
- Preheat oven to 200 °C (400 °F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Place the scones an inch apart on the prepared baking tray and brush the tops with milk.
- Bake the scones for about 15 minutes until they have browned evenly.
Plate and Serve!
The scones are best served the day they are baked, but can be re-heated the second day for 5 minutes in a 150 °C (300 °F) oven to re-fresh them
