Buttery and Flaky Scones: A Delicious Breakfast Treat
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, mix 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
Cut in 1/2 cup of cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of milk, 1/4 cup of sour cream, and 1 large egg.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Gently knead the dough on a floured surface until it comes together.
Shape the dough into a circle about 1 inch thick, then cut into wedges.
Place the wedges on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes until golden brown.
