Scones
Method:
Scones
  1. For best results use the KitchenAid Platinum Stand Mixer KSM156
  2. Prepare an oven shelf by placing it in the top third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 210°C (190°C fan forced). Paper line or grease and flour a baking sheet
  3. Attach the mixing bowl, flat beater and pouring shield to the stand mixer. Add the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt to the bowl; turn the mixer to speed 2 and mix until well combined. Drop in the butter and increase the mixer speed to speed 4. Mix for 2 minutes, or until the butter and flour are well mixed and the mixture looks like coarse crumbs
  4. Turn off the mixer and scrape the sides of the bowl. Add the milk and water and mix on speed 6 until the mixture just forms a dough. This will only take about 8 seconds
  5. Turn out the dough onto a floured work surface. Knead lightly until the dough feels soft and smooth. Gently form the dough into a circle, approximately 3 cm thick and cut out the scones using a cutter that is regularly dipped in flour
  6. Arrange the scones on the prepared baking tray so that they are touching each other. Lightly brush the tops of the scones with a little milk
  7. Bake without delay on the top shelf of the oven for about 12 minutes
Tips & Hints:
  • Do not over work the mixture. Use plain flour and add baking powder for best results. Placing the scones on the tray so they are touching helps them to rise vertically during baking, giving you a taller, finished scone. Makes 10

Excellent recipe! Exactly what I needed and was looking for, so I didn't need to crumb the flour by hand! Worked perfectly!
