I have made many types of scones, but this recipe is the best ever. I think you are lucky to have access to such a great recipe. Many of my past chefs would never give such a great recipe for free.

Place the flour, baking powder, butter and sugar into a small pastry mixer and mix with a paddle for 5 minutes or until all the ingredients have mixed together.

Place the eggs, natural yoghurt and milk into a large metal measuring jug and blend together with a bar blender.

Add the milk mixture into the dry mixture and combine as quickly as possible. The longer you mix the ingredients the harder the scones will turn out.

Place some bakers flour on your workbench, then place the scone dough on top of the flour. Coat you clean hands in flour and begin to flatten out the scone dough with your hands. Make the scone dough about 1 inch high then take a round pastry cutter and cut out the scones and place them onto a well greased baking tray. Bake the scones in an oven on 365F for 18 minutes. Take out of the oven and cool down the scones on a metal cooling rack. Serve 2 hot scones with strawberry jam and whipped cream.
