Baked Scones with Strawberries

I've slowly been transitioning back into cooking/baking, finding time in between feedings and snuggling with our little bug. This was one recipe that looked easy, delicious, and fairly quick to prepare. We were rewarded with a tasty little breakfast treat and a recipe that can be easily adapted to any flavor combination you can imagine.

Basic Baked Scones
Our Best Bites

Ingredients:

1/3 C real butter
1 ¾ C Flour
3T sugar
2/1/2 t baking powder
¼ t salt
1 egg, beaten
4-6 T milk

Instructions:

Heat oven to 400 degrees.

Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in butter with pastry blender until it resembles fine crumbs.

Combine egg and 4T milk. Slowly pour milk mixture into dry mixture while mixing with a fork to combine. If you need the additional 2 T milk to bring the dough together, add it. I almost always need the full 6T of milk.
