Time 1h30m

Yield about 8 scones

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/4 cup sugar, plus more for dusting
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
1 cup buttermilk or 3/4 cup milk plus 1/4 cup plain yogurt
1 large egg, beaten

Steps:

  • Sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a bowl, then mix in the butter with a pastry cutter or your hands. Stir in the buttermilk until the dough just comes together. Place in a ziptop bag and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
  • Put the dough on a lightly floured work surface and, working the dough as little as possible, form into a rectangular mass about 1 inch in thickness. Use a knife to cut out scone-size pieces and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Brush each with some of the beaten egg and sprinkle with a dusting of sugar.
  • Cook until golden brown, checking after 10 minutes and rotating as necessary, 10 to 15 minutes total, depending on the heat of your oven and the size of the scones.
