Ingredients:
• 2 cups cake flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 125 g unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 1 large egg
• 100 ml plain yogurt
• 3 tablespoons water
Instructions:
• Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F). Spray a baking tray with non-stick spray or line with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, sift together the cake flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Mix well with a whisk.
• Add the cubed butter to the dry mixture. Rub the butter into the flour with your fingers until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, yogurt, and water until well combined.
• Gently add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture, mixing lightly with your fingers until a dough forms. Avoid overworking the dough.
• Flour a clean surface and turn the dough onto it. Shape the dough gently and pat it down to your desired thickness. Use a floured cookie cutter or knife to cut out scone shapes.
• Arrange the scones on the prepared baking tray and bake for about 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Let the scones cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm with your favorite toppings!
Notes:
• For extra flavor, mix in raisins, chocolate chips, or fresh berries before shaping the dough.
• Brushing the tops with a little milk or egg wash will give them a glossy finish.
• These scones pair wonderfully with tea or coffee.
