Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 1 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 1/4 cup shredded butter
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 3/4 cup low fat milk + 2 tablespoons lemon juice (mix together & set aside for 5-7 minutes)
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Zest of one lemon
Instruction
- - Preheat oven to 375F/190C.
- - In a bowl, add the sugar and lemon zest, mix well to allow lemon zest's oil and aroma to spread in the sugar.
- - Sift in the flour with salt and baking powder. Whisk again with sugar mixture.
- - Add the shredded butter and mix using a fork for one minute.
- - Pour the milk and mix using a fork. Do not over mix, just until the mixture is combined.
- - Transfer to a greased baking tray, or better to use parchment paper or aluminum foil.
- - Sprinkle 1-teaspoon flour over the dough, shape to one-inch high disk, and cut into eight scones.
- - Bake the scones for 20 to 25 minutes or until the surface is light brown. It really depends on your oven but keep checking on the scones after 15 minutes.
