Spelt scones Ingredients (makes 8 scones)
Method Heat the oven to 180 degrees and line a baking tray with baking paper. ■ Sift the flour, baking powder and bicarb of soda into a large mixing bowl. Stir in the salt and sugar. ■ Grate the butter into the bowl, using a coarse grater. Rub the butter into the dry ingredients using your fingertips, until the butter is incorporated evenly and the mixture resembles sand. ■ Make a well in the centre, and pour in the cream and buttermilk. Stir in gently using a spatula. ■ Add in the orange zest and raisins. ■ Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead very gently, just to bring the dough together. ■ Flatten the dough gently into a disk about 2.5cm to 4cm high. Cut the circle into 8 scones. ■ Arrange the scones on the baking sheet, and bake for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown on top. ■ Allow to cool slightly before serving with whipped cream and jam. ●
