Brown Scones

This recipe for savoury scones come from Ruth Isabelle Ross' Irish Baking Book, which I bought while living in Ireland for a year. I think they are very tasty little things. If you find the basic recipe to plain, feel free to add herbs, cheese or other add-ins of your choice. Note: After Toni's review I went back and corrected my mistake concerning the amount of liquid ingredients. It should be fine now.

8 scones (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 230°C.
  2. 2
    In a big bowl mix all dry ingredients.
  3. 3
    Add milk and water and add-ins of your choice. Using your fingers knead into an elastic dough (be careful not to over knead it). If you need more flour just add it and if you need more liquid add more water or milk.
  4. 4
    Flatten the dough to desired thickness and cut out scones of desired size (I use a 7.5 cm round glass for cutting).
  5. 5
    Place scones on a paper-lined baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.

With a little tinkering, I think this recipe has more potential than the rating might imply. Made as directed and even used a scale for the dry items and my metric measuring cups for the liquids. I found the dough to be extremely dry and after trying to work in the milk and water found myself leaving about 1/4 of the dry mix behind. The scones themselves suffered a bit in my efforts to get the dough to mix and were a bit tough on the outside though the insides were lovely. I will try these again and perhaps add an additional 25-30ml of milk. Thanks!
