Fruit Scones
450g (1lb) Self Raising Flour
110g (4oz) Butter

50g (2oz) Sugar
½ tsp Salt

Rub the butter lightly into flour, lifting the mixture to add air, until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
Add the sugar and sultanas.
Add the salt and bicarbonate of soda, mixing in enough milk to make a soft dough.
Pat or roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface until about 1.5cm (½ inch) thick, cut into 4cm (1½ inch) rounds.
