Adding a few rose geranium leaves to scone mix takes ordinary scones to another level. I took my Mum’s scone recipe and added the leaves. I prefer traditional cut scones to drop scones. This recipe makes 9 scones.
240g self raising flour
1 tsp Baking Powder
pinch salt
60g margarine or butter
30g castor sugar
1 beaten egg
2 or 3 Rose Geranium leaves finely chopped, or 3 or 4 lavender flowers chopped
1/2 Cup Milk
- Sift flour, Baking Powder & salt
- rub in margarine
- Add sugar
- Mix to a soft dough with beaten egg, geranium leaves & milk
- Roll onto floured surface & knead quickly, cut circles 1/2 inch thick
- Brush with milk
- Bake at 210 deg C for 12-15 mins until golden
Wow the first time I visit and you offer rose scented scones! Delicious, make sure you add them to the Brit Mums Foodie round up 😉 Emma will adore these
They look scrummy!
