TIP! For best results, select the smaller berries from mixed berry packet.  Or replace mixed berries with frozen raspberries or blueberries, if preferred.

Ingredients

3 ½ cups self-raising flour

1/3 cup caster sugar

100g cold unsalted butter, chopped

1 egg, lightly beaten

1¼ cups buttermilk

1 cup frozen mixed berries (See Tip)

Raspberry jam and softly whipped cream, to serve

Method

  1. Grease a 20cm x 30cm lamington pan with butter. Lightly dust with flour. 

  2. Place the 3 ½ cups flour in a large bowl. Stir in sugar. Rub in butter with your fingertips until mixture resembles breadcrumbs. 

  3. Make a well in the centre. Add egg, buttermilk and frozen berries. Gently stir with a flat-bladed knife until mixture starts to come together.

  4. Turn dough onto a clean bench lightly dusted with flour. Gently knead to form a smooth, soft dough. Don’t over-knead. With lightly floured hands, gently pat out into a 3cm thick round. 

  5. Using a 6cm round cutter dipped in flour, cut out 12 rounds (don’t twist cutter), re-shaping and cutting dough as necessary. Place scones, touching side-by-side, in prepared pan. Lightly brush tops with water.

  6. Cook in a hot oven (200C) for about 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden. Remove. Stand in pan for 10 minutes. Turn out onto a wire rack. Cover with a clean tea towel. 

  7. Serve warm scones with jam and whipped cream.
