Devonshire Cream Tea

A traditional English treat, Devonshire cream tea is a delightful combination of scones, clotted cream, and strawberry jam, served with a pot of tea.

Ingredients - Serves 4

Preheat the oven to 220°C (200°C fan) mark 7.
Put the flour into a large bowl, add the butter and rub in with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
Stir in the sugar, then quickly stir in the milk to get a soft dough.
Turn out onto a lightly floured work surface, knead lightly and roll out to a 2cm (3⁄4in) thickness. Cut out rounds using a 5.5cm (21⁄4in) cutter.
Place on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12min until risen and golden.
Meanwhile, make the tea by placing the tea bags in a teapot and pouring over the boiling water. Leave to brew for 2-3min.
Serve the warm scones with the clotted cream and strawberry jam, along with the pot of tea.
