These are amasi scones... easy to make and absolutely yummy!

Ingredients

500g Margarine

4  Eggs

30ml Baking powder

250ml Amasi

1500ml Snowflake Cake Flour

250ml Sugar

1  pinch salt

Method

• Sift flour, baking powder, sugar and salt into large metal bowl and mix around gently with a spatula.

   

• Rub in margarine until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs and make a well in the center of the bowl.

   

• Whisk together egg, amasi and milk in a separate bowl and pour 2/3 of this into the middle of the crumb mixture.

   

• Combine the ingredients using a cutting motion with a spatula, once combined and, if the dough is not soft enough, add the remaining egg mixture, a little at a time, until the dough is soft but not sticky.

   

• Place mixture onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead until soft and firm dough is formed.

   

• Roll out mixture to a 3cm thickness and cut out scones using a scone cutter, dipping the cutter in additional flour after each scone to prevent sticking.

   

• Place scones onto a greased baking tray and bake at 170⁰C for 17 minutes.
