Brunch Scones

Ingredients

1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour

4 teaspoons baking powder

5 tablespoons unsalted butter

5 tablespoons white sugar

⅔ cup whole milk

½ cup currants

1 egg yolk

beaten

Bread

Directions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or line with baking parchment.

Step 2

Sift flour and baking powder into a medium bowl. Rub butter and sugar into flour to form a fine crumble. Make a well in center and add milk and currants. Knead gently together being careful not to over mix. Dough will be sticky.

Step 3

On a generously floured surface roll out dough to 3/4 inch thickness. Stamp out 2 1/2 inch rounds with a plain pastry cutter. Transfer to prepared pan and brush tops with egg yolk. Allow to stand for 15 minutes.

Step 4

Bake in preheated oven until risen and lightly golden on top 12 to 15 minutes. Remove to a rack to cool.
