Sweet Sunday- Cherry Scones!!

Hi, all Welcome back to my blog I hope everyone is having a great weekend, enjoying this beautiful weather! This has been another crazy week for me, getting used to my new norm. I decided to go with an old traditional recipe this week. My aunt and grandmother could make these in there sleep! It’s like apple tarts or brown bread, you just new when you tasted it who had made it! lol, Everything was always homemade from scratch!! every time you popped in there was a cup of tea and something homemade waiting for you and that’s something I really miss. I wanted to do my own spin on a scone recipe so I baked cherry scones this week, This is something that’s my own, every time I make regular scones or apple tarts I’m always told “it’s just like my nana used to make” which I do love, I love I can do it like her I’m doing her proud, but I do want my own one. Putting this post together I realized how much the women in my family have influenced me and taugh me, passing on what they love to me and now its what I love and all these recipes I make and share is because of them❤️. I really hope you enjoy this recipe and try it yourself.

All You Need:

2 cups Self Raising Flour
¼ cup butter
2 tsp baking powder
2 tbsp caster sugar
1 egg beaten
100mls milk
100g cherries ( chopped)

Start by preheating your oven to 200℃ and prepare your baking tray with baking paper and set aside

I a medium bowl add the flour and baking powder, rub in the butter till it resembled bread crumbs. Stir in the sugar and chopped cherries. Next, add the milk and egg and stir till it forms a soft dough.

Roll out the dough on a floured surface and cut out your round scones, this recipe makes 8 scones. Bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes till they are golden brown in color, you can serve them hot or cold. I served minute with strawberry jam and fresh cream on top.
