Easy Treacle Scones
Treacle scones remind me of my childhood! They also smell delicious while they're baking. This recipe will make about 8 medium sized scones - ready to eat in less than 30 minutes.
Ingredients
Makes: 8 scones
- 240g self raising flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 60g butter
- 30g caster sugar
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 100ml milk
- 2 tablespoons dark treacle
Directions

- Preheat oven to 220 degrees C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Place flour and baking powder in a mixing bowl then rub in butter until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Stir in the sugar.
- In a small bowl or measuring jug, use a fork to mix the egg, milk and treacle until well combined. Add to flour mixture to form a wet dough.
- Turn out onto a lightly floured surface, sprinkling more flour on top if needed to form a workable dough. Roll out to about 2 cm thick and stamp out rounds with a 5cm pastry cutter, kneading the remaining dough together to cut out more. Place on lined baking tray and bake for about 8-10 minutes.
- Sprinkle with caster sugar while still warm, then set aside to cool.

Hi , what am I doing wrong. Love treacle scones. "but they turn out flat despite having used baking powder. The mixture does seem quite wet too. Made a couple of times now with same results,? Any comments would be appreciated. - 24 Nov 2017 (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)
