Old-Fashioned Fruit Scones
Preparation
1. Measure flour, baking powder and sugar into a mixing bowl. Cut the butter in with a pastry blender until the size of peas.
2. Beat in milk, egg and fruit until well incorporated.
3. Turn out onto a lightly floured board and pat to 1/2-inch thickness.
4. Cut out with a floured cutter into 2-inch rounds (or, using a sharp knife, cut into triangles, which is the traditional Scottish method).
5. Bake at 375 F for 12 to 15 minutes.
