Nothing tastes better than our fresh scones, with the added flavour of ground cloves, served with a dollop of jam and cream.
- Preheat oven to 220C/200C fan forced. Grease and flour a 20cm (base measurement) square cake pan.
- Place flour, raisins, clove and caster sugar in a large bowl. Add butter. Using fingertips, rub butter into flour mixture until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Make a well in the centre. Add buttermilk. Using a flat-bladed knife, stir until dough almost comes together. Place on a lightly floured surface.
- Knead gently until dough just comes together. Press out to a 4cm-thick round. Dip a 6cm round cutter into flour to prevent dough sticking. Cut out scones. Gently press leftover dough pieces together and repeat to make a total 12 scones
- Place scones in prepared pan. Bake for 20 minutes or until light golden and hollow when tapped on top.
- Meanwhile, beat together cream, brown sugar and extra clove until soft peaks form.
- Serve warm scones split and topped with cream and jam, if using.
