Scones and Cheat's Raspberry Jam

Preparation

Step 1


To make the jam, preheat the oven to 180°C, gas mark 4 and clean and sterilise a jam jar.


Step 2


Place the raspberries and caster sugar in 2 separate ovenproof dishes. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Pour the sugar into the raspberries and leave to cool completely before serving.


Step 3


To make the scones, preheat the oven to 200°C, gas mark 6 and grease a baking tray.


Step 4


Sieve the flour, salt and baking powder together into a mixing bowl and add the sugar and butter and rub together until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.


Step 5


Mix in the milk to make a dough, and knead a little until it becomes smooth.


Step 6


Roll the dough out on a lightly-floured surface to about 1cm thick and cut out about sixteen 5-6cm rounds. Put the dough circles on the prepared baking tray and brush with a little milk. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes until risen and golden.


Step 7


Serve the scones with the jam and some clotted cream.


Step 8


Makes around 350g jam.
