Method

Preheat the oven to 220°C and line a baking tray with greaseproof paper.

Sift the flour and salt into a bowl.

Rub the butter into the flour using your fingertips until it resembles breadcrumbs.

Add the sugar and milk and mix lightly until just combined.

Flatten the dough on a floured surface until it is 2cm thick.

Cut out 8 to 12 scones using a 5cm fluted cutter.

Bake the scones on the tray for 12 to 15 minutes until golden-brown.

Cool the scones on a wire rack.

Serve the scones with clotted cream and raspberry jam.
