Lemon and Cranberry Scones

11.6.12 By Annie N

A bit like bread, I absolutely love making scones. I like experimenting with different flavours and can’t stop eating them! Today’s helping is lemon and cranberry. It works so well, you get a really good kick of each flavour when you bite into them.

I may or may not have eaten the whole batch in under a week…

You will need:

> 7cm round cookie cutter
> Rolling pin
> Pastry brush
> Baking tray, lined
> Jug
> Pot with a bit of milk in for glazing

Makes 12-14

Ingredients:

> 450g self-raising flour + extra to dust
> 2tsp baking powder
> Zest of 1 lemon
> 120g butter/marg
> 5tbsp milk (you always end up needing a bit more, but add as you go) + extra to glaze
> 2 eggs
> 200g dried cranberries (I used Craisins)

Method:

> Preheat the oven to 200 degrees C and line the baking tray.
> In a jug, place the milk and eggs, then beat them together briefly. Add in the cranberries and leave to one side.
> Place the flour, baking powder, zest of 1 lemon and butter in a large bowl.
> Rub the mixture together until it looks like breadcrumbs. You can use your fingers, or the beater attachment of your mixer.
> Add the wet ingredients to the dry and, using dough hooks, mix together until a soft dough forms. Add extra milk a splash at a time if required.
> Flour the work surface and turn the dough out. Roll it until it’s just under an inch thick, or a bit thicker depending on how big you want your scones, they do rise quite a bit.
> Cut out your scones and place on the baking tray. I managed to get 14.

> Using the pastry brush, glaze the scones with milk.
> Place in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, until golden brown and risen. For my oven, it’s always 12 minutes, but it differs between ovens.
> Take out of the oven and leave to cool completely.
> Will keep in an airtight container for 5 days.

My Banana Caramel French Toast is super easy to make as it uses store bought caramel sauce to caramelize the bananas! The sweet, sticky caramel mix is then put on to crisp, fried Brioche to create a decadent breakfast!
