Learn How to Make Irish Scones

Welcome to the dairy church kitchen. Today we're going to be making Irish scones.

We're using a recipe from the Cocoa Castle cookbook.

We'll need 3 cups of flour. Brush it off with a knife for correct measurement.

Add 1 teaspoon of salt.

Add 4 teaspoons of baking powder.

Add 1 cup of sugar.

Beat 1 egg before adding it to the mixture.

Mix in 1 and 1/4 cups of milk.

You can add 1/2 cup of raisins, chocolate chips, nuts, or dried apricots.

Use an Irish spoon to mix the batter as it thickens.

Spray a scone pan with cooking spray.

Spoon the batter into the wells of the scone pan.

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

If using a heavy metal pan, bake for 25 to 30 minutes until golden.

If using a light cake pan, bake for 1 hour.

Let the scones cool a little in the pan before removing them.

Serve warm with Irish butter.
