INGREDIENTS

  • Dry Ingredients

    • 🥣 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
    • 4 teaspoons baking powder
    • 🍬 5 tablespoons white sugar

  • Wet Ingredients

    • 🧈 5 tablespoons unsalted butter
    • 🥛 ⅔ cup whole milk
    • 🥚 1 egg yolk, beaten

  • Optional Ingredients

    • ½ cup currants

STEPS

1

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or line with baking parchment.

2

Sift flour and baking powder into a medium bowl. Rub butter and sugar into flour to form a fine crumble. Make a well in center, and add milk and currants. Knead gently together, being careful not to over mix. Dough will be sticky.

3

On a generously floured surface, roll out dough to 3/4 inch thickness. Stamp out 2 1/2 inch rounds with a plain pastry cutter. Transfer to prepared pan, and brush tops with egg yolk. Allow to stand for 15 minutes.

4

Bake in preheated oven until risen and lightly golden on top, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove to a rack to cool.
