Sultana and Cinnamon Scones

Ingredients:

3 cups self-raising flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/3 cup icing sugar

1 cup sultanas

1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon salt

4 tablespoons (80g) Western Star Spreadable Original Soft, chilled

1 cup milk, (+ extra for brushing)

Chilled Western Star Spreadable Original Soft, to serve

Method:

Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Combine flour, baking powder, icing sugar, sultanas, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl. Dot with the Western Star Spreadable Original Soft. Using your fingertips, rub together until well combined
Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients. Add milk. Using a dinner knife, quickly mix until combined (add a little more buttermilk to the mixture if needed). Pull dough together into a rough ball. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead just until a smooth dough forms. Press the dough into a 3cm thick circle. Using a 5cm cookie cutter dusted with flour, cut 12 rounds from the dough (re-rolling as necessary)
Place scones close together on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Brush tops with extra milk. Bake for 20-23 minutes until golden and cooked through. Stand scones in pan for 5 minutes then wrap in a clean tea-towel
Serve warm scones split and spread with Western Star Spreadable Original Soft
