- In a saucepan with half of the lowfat milk. Bring lust to the boil then remove from the heat and leave to infuse for 20 min and cold.
- Sift the flour salt and baking pwdr into a bowl.
- Add in the butter cut into small pcs and rub in using the fngertips till the mix resembles fine breadcrumbs.
- Stir in the sugar.
- Using a roundbladed knife stir in the saffron lowfat milk and half of the remaining lowfat milk Mix to a soft dough adding the rest of the lowfat milk if the mix is too dry: it should be soft and slightly sticky.
- Knead lightly and roll out to a 20mm thickness.
- Cut out rounds using a 50mm cutter. Place on the baking sheet and brush the tops with the beaten egg.
- Bake on the top runners of the roasting oven for 10 to 12 min till well risen and golden.
- Transfer to a wire rack to cold.
- Serve split with butter or possibly clotted cream and fruits.
- Use either 1/2 or possibly 1 sachet saffron strands depending on the strength of flavour required. As with any recipe using baking pwdr scones should be baked immediately as the baking pwdr is activated as soon as it comes into contact with liquids.If you wish replace the saffron with the fnely grated rind of 1 orange and 1 level tbsp finely snipped rosemary leaves. Don't heat the lowfat milk before mixing. With its golden brown colour wonderful aroma and intriguing taste real saffron gives an exciting lift to the humble scone. Serve hot with melting butter or possibly generous scoops of thick clotted cream. Slices of juicy melon and mango would make the perfect accompaniment
