Hi, everyone. :) Today we'll show you how to make the Queen's scones (British Scones).
Scones are biscuit-like pastries, are often cut into round shape or wedges. According to the scone's history, it became popular and an essential part of the fashionable ritual of tea time in England Anna, the Duchess of Bedford, and now it's an English tradition known as "Afternoon Tea"
In England, scones are served at "cream tea" in the late morning or with afternoon tea. You might hear this: What goes on a scone first? Jam or clotted cream? There's much debate about it. For us, we prefer cream first. :-)
In this video, we follow the recipe of the former royal chef Darren McGrady, but we reduce the sugar just a little bit. The ingredient are simple and recipe is easy to make. Use this recipe, you can make the Queen's scones at home. Hope you like this video. Enjoy. :-)

Queen's Favourite Scones Recipes
☞ cutting size: Ø5.3cm, can make 6~7 scones
✎ Ingredients
all-purpose flour 210g
granulated sugar 50g
a pinch of salt
baking powder 8g
cold unsalted butter 55g, cut into small cubes
cold whole 㔹milk 85ml
half egg, cold
one egg yolk for brushing
✎ Instructions
1. Sift flour, sugar, salt and baking powder together in a large bowl, and mix well.
2. Add the frozen butter cubes, then rub in with your floured fingers until the mix looks like fine bread crumbs. Place in the refrigerator for 5-10 minutes.
3. We just need half egg, so crack an egg into a small bowl and whisk it into a homogenous mixture, then split in half.
4. Add beaten egg and pour half milk, this stage you don't need to add too much milk, just lightly bring all ingredients together.
5. Keep adding the milk until the dough comes together. It's really important that we don't overwork to knead it, once the dough come together, put the dough onto the table.
6. Dusting a little flour, just knead it a little bit, then lightly roll the dough to an inch thick.
7. Using a well-floured round cookie cutter to cut the dough. Gently brush the top of scones with egg yolk.
8. Preheat the oven to 180C, and bake for 20~22 minutes.
9. Remove the baked scones form the oven and let cool, then serving with clotted cream and jam. Enjoy.
