Pinch of salt

1/2 cup butter, cold

3. Cut the butter into small squares and work it into the flour, using your fingertips, until it resembles bread crumbs.
4. Mix together the extra-large egg, buttermilk and lemon juice and add a little bit at a time to the flour and butter mixture.
5. Use a knife to ‘cut’ the dough together.
6. Remove the mixture from the mixing bowl and place it on a work surface.
7. Bring everything together, using your hands.
8. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out evenly sized scones.
9. Arrange the scones on the greased baking tray.

Useful Tips

• For best results, always use cold butter straight from the fridge.
• Don’t ‘overwork’ the dough. Lightly press everything together and don’t knead the dough or handle it too much.
