Lemon Scones

Step by step

1. 1

   Mix the lemon juice with the milk and let it sit — what we're looking for is for the milk to curdle.

   
2. 2

   Zest the lemon and add it to a bowl along with the sugar, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix.

   
3. 3

   Add the very cold butter cut into small pieces. Beat for about 10 minutes.

   
4. 4

   Add the lemon milk from the beginning and mix until combined.

   
5. 5

   Turn out onto the counter and finish bringing it together with your hands.

   
6. 6

   Cover the counter with flour, place the dough on it, add more flour on top, and roll it out with a rolling pin.

   
7. 7

   Cut out the scones with a cutter and place them on a baking sheet.

   
8. 8

   Bake for 18 minutes at 180°C (350°F).

   
9. 9

   In a bowl with the powdered sugar, slowly add lemon juice while mixing, until you reach a nice thick consistency.

   
10. 10

    Coat our scones with this glaze.
