Time 30m

Yield 14

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
½ teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon mixed spice
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons castor sugar or superfine sugar
1 tablespoon dark molasses or treacle
½ cup milk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Set an oven shelf in the top third of the oven for baking.
  • Sift the flour, salt, baking soda, cream of tartar, cinnamon and mixed spice into a large bowl. Rub in butter until the mixture resembles bread crumbs. In a small saucepan, gently heat the milk and stir in the sugar and treacle until dissolved. Remove from the heat and pour into the dry ingredients. Stir until it turns into a soft dough.
  • Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead lightly until smooth. Use a rolling pin to roll out to 1/2 inch thickness. Cut into 2 inch circles, rerolling dough until it has all been used. Place the scones on a lightly greased or floured baking sheet.
  • Bake for 12 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until the bottoms are lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack. Serve split. Don't use a knife to split them, rather pull them apart into two halves gently with your hands.

TREACLE SCONES



Treacle Scones image

I had these for the first time when I moved to Scotland. This is what would happen if gingerbread and scones had kids. :-) I doubled the recipe when I made them and am not sure if I miscalculated, but there was a lot of liquid! So, if your dough is too liquidy, add small amounts of flour until you have a soft dough. They will still come out great! :-)
