Combine milk and mustard in a jug and pour into the food processor. Pulse in 2 second bursts until mixture just comes together into lumps
Turn onto a lightly floured bench and knead lightly only until just smooth. Pat mixture into a 3cm thick round. Using a floured 6-7cm round cutter, cut out scones
Alternatively cut into 10 squares using a sharp knife. Gently re-roll leftover dough and repeat cutting. Place scones on a baking paper lined tray and brush with milk
