The Best Fluffy Scone Recipes

THE BEST SCONES

The Best Scones image

The extra-rich taste of our cream scones comes from using milk powder in addition to the standard ingredients butter and cream. A light touch when combining the dough ensures a tender crumb.

Time 1h

Yield 8 scones

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 1/4 cup heavy cream, plus more for brushing
1 large egg, beaten
2 tablespoons dry low-fat milk powder
3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting (see Cook's Note)
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 stick (8 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
Demerara or raw sugar, for sprinkling
Softened butter and jam, for serving

Steps:

Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Whisk the cream, egg and milk powder in a liquid measuring cup. Pulse the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt in a food processor until combined. Add the butter and pulse only until pea-size pieces remain. Transfer to a large bowl and make a well in the center. Pour the wet ingredients into the well and mix with a fork, incorporating the dry ingredients a little at a time until a shaggy dough forms (it's okay if the dough looks a little dry, just don't overwork it). Lightly knead the dough in the bowl until it just comes together.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat into a 1-inch-thick rectangle (about 9 by 7 inches). Cut in half lengthwise, then cut in half again crosswise; you should have 4 equal rectangles. Cut each piece in half from corner to corner making 8 triangular wedges. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and freeze for 10 minutes.
Brush the tops with cream and sprinkle with demerara sugar. Bake the scones until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, and then transfer to a wire rack to cool for 15 more minutes. Serve warm with softened butter and jam.

FLUFFY SCONES

Fluffy Scones image

These are the fluffiest scones Ive ever made. They are so light and rise a lot, too. The key to getting them that way is to handle the dough as little as possible. You can also turn them into fruit scones by adding a desired amount of dried cherries, cranberries or raisins.

Time 22m

Yield 8 scones

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 pinch salt
30 g butter, cut into small pieces
125 ml milk
125 ml water

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F.
Sift flour, baking powder and salt into a big bowl. Using your finger tips work in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well in the center.
Whisk together milk and water and pour into the well reserving some liquid for glazing the scones.
Quickly stir until a dough forms.
On a lightly floured surface pat down gently and cut out scones (I use a glass of 7.5 cm in diameter). The dough will be kinda sticky, but you should be able to form it without problems. If not, add some more flour.
Glaze scones with reserved water-milk-mixture and bake for 10-12 minutes.

EASY FLUFFY SCONES

Easy fluffy scones image

These are the business - light but with a nice crusty outside

Provided by Jane Hornby

Categories Afternoon tea, Treat

Time 22m

Yield Makes 9

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

350g self-raising flour, plus more for dusting
¼ tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
85g cold butter, cut into cubes
4 tbsp golden caster sugar
150g pot natural full-fat yogurt
4 tbsp full-fat milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 egg beaten with 1 tbsp milk, to glaze

Steps:

Put a baking sheet in the oven at 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Put the flour, salt and baking powder into a food processor, then whizz in the butter until it disappears. Pulse in the sugar, tip into a large bowl, then make a well in the middle.
Warm the yogurt, milk and vanilla together in the microwave for 1 min or in a pan; it should be hot and may well go a bit lumpy-looking. Tip into the bowl and quickly work into the flour mix using a cutlery knife. As soon as it's all in, stop.
Tip the dough onto a floured surface, then, with floured hands, fold the dough over a few times - just enough to create a smoothish dough. Press out to about 4cm/1½in thick, dip a 7cm cutter into more flour, then stamp out 4 rounds, flouring the cutter each time. Squash the remainder lightly together, then repeat until the dough is used up. Brush tops with egg wash, scatter flour over the hot sheet, then lift the scones on. Bake for 12 mins until risen and golden. Best eaten just-warm, or on the day.
