I felt the motivation to don my apron on Sunday morning and tea biscuits were the creation in mind. So quick and easy to make. You can have them ready to cook by the time your oven has pre-heated to 400 degrees and the coffee is ready!
A few simple ingredients like flour, butter, eggs, milk, baking powder and you are ready to go. The great thing with this recipe is that you crumb the flour and butter together first before adding the wet ingredients and it makes the biscuit/scone so light and almost flaky. They go into the oven on a floured tray and are ready in 20minutes. I like to mould my mix into a large ball and place it in the centre of the tray, then I cut it into 6 and pull the pieces outwards, closer to the edge of the tray, so there is plenty of room around them to cook. It also gives you very rustic looking, triangular shaped biscuits/scones which are very appealing to the eye. We ate these while they were still warm with butter and some home made strawberry and rhubarb jam that we were given over the Summer at a wedding we went to on a farm.
Easy peasy breakfast that is a lot easier and quicker than you would think. I often feel that people think that using pre-made mixes or buying the finished product is always easier and faster but this really is an example of how it isn't always the case and is definitely a great little baking session if you feel motivated.
