How To Make sydney’s scone bread

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Step 2

In bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt; blend well. Using pastry blender or your fingers (I find this works better) work the butter into the flour until mixture is crumbly.
Step 3

Combine milk and egg and stir just until flour disappears.
Step 4

Knead 5 or 6 times on a floured surface until it forms a ball. Shape into a disc, about 1 inch thick.
Step 5

Cut into 8 wedges, leave the wedges touching, as is.
Step 6

Sprinkle top with sugar and bake for 20 minutes until golden brown.
