Receta Sourdough Scones Recipe

by Tandy Sinclair

For those of you who don’t know it, it is International Scone Week! This is a week of scone baking and making, and eating, hosted by the wonderful Celia. Celia sent me my sourdough starter and I have had an amazing amount of fun making using it not only for bread but for muffins and brownies as well. I have been perfecting a recipe to use in my bread maker and I can report back that it works amazingly well. When I realized it was scone week I decided straight away to use Cordelia to make my scones. Last year I made scones for the first time using James Martin’s Recipe. Using his recipe as a base, I created these sourdough scones. They worked out really well, and I must confess that I ate half of them in one go. I used the last of my jam on the first one, and ate the second one plain. The third one I had with a little bit of butter. They have a lovely texture, and a slight hint of salt. They were so easy to make that I could do a batch every weekend, if the waist line would not complain!

Sourdough Scones Recipe

Ingredients:

• For the scones
• 160g self-rising flour, plus extra for dusting
• 30g fructose
• Pinch of salt
• 30g butter, cubed
• 65g fed sourdough
• 75mls milk
• For the glaze
• 1 egg
• 5mls milk

Method:

For the scones

Preheat the oven to 220°Celsius

Put the flour, fructose and salt into a food processor

Pulse a few times to mix

Add the butter and process until the butter is mixed in

Add the sourdough and slowly pour in the milk while mixing until a dough forms

Turn out onto a well-floured surface and form into a ball

Flatten into a disc shape 3cm high

Cut out circles using a cutter – I used a glass – and place on a lined baking tray

For the glaze

Beat together the egg and the milk

Brush over the top of the scones

Bake for 12 minutes and cool on a wire rack

Serve while still warm

Cooks Notes:

Substitute sugar for the fructose in equal weight measure
