ed's scones

i've never been successful with scone preparation. last year i tried to make some (possibly without the help of a recipe) and i failed dismally.

so i finally worked up the courage to try again with the supervision of my stepfather ed. because his recipe is way easier than mum's.

you need
* 3 cups of self-raising flour
* 1 cup of cream
* 1 cup of milk
* 1 T of lemon juice or vinegar

preheat the oven to 200-220°c

and then you mix the ingredients together

don't knead the dough! but you might need to add more flour / milk depending on the texture.

flatten out

cut out scone shapes (we used a tumbler)

lay out on a floury tray and brush with some milk.

cook in the preheated oven until they look done [15-20 min].

and then eat with jam and cream.

easy peasy!
