Delicate apple cakes with tender, moist texture. Enjoy warm with custard or cool with custard icing. Handle gently, keep floured. Result: divine taste and texture!
Ingredients:
  • 450g (3 cups) self-raising flour, plus extra to dust
  • 55g (1/4 cup) caster sugar
  • 1.25 gm ground cinnamon
  • 125g butter, chilled, chopped
  • 185ml (3/4 cup) buttermilk, plus extra to brush
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 4.40 gm vanilla extract
  • 400g can Pink Lady apple slices in juice, well drained, roughly chopped
  • 150g (1 cup) icing sugar mixture
  • 20.00 gm custard powder
  • 1½ tbsp boiling water
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 200C/180C fan forced. Line a large baking tray with baking paper to prepare for baking.
  • In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, and cinnamon. Add the butter and use your fingertips to gently rub it in until the mixture resembles small lumps. Create a well in the center.
  • Combine buttermilk, egg, and vanilla in a medium jug. Pour into the flour mixture along with the apple. Stir with a non-serrated knife until evenly moistened (it will be sticky and wet).
  • Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently press it out to 3cm thickness using floured hands. Cut out rounds with a floured 6cm cutter, dipping it in extra flour between cuts. Collect any excess dough scraps and press them together (avoid kneading) to cut out more rounds. Carefully transfer the rounds onto a prepared tray using a knife or thin lifter. Brush the tops with additional buttermilk.
  • Transfer the scones to a wire rack lined with baking paper after baking for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to cool completely before serving.
  • Prepare the icing by mixing icing sugar and custard powder in a bowl. Stir in boiling water until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled cakes and let set for 30 minutes before serving.
