- Heat oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7.
- Tip the 350g self-raising flour into a large bowl with 1/4 tsp salt and 1 tsp baking powder then mix.
- Add 85g butter cubes, then rub in with your fingers until the mix looks like fine crumbs.then stir in 3tbs custer sugar.

- Add 1 tsp vanilla extract and a squeeze of lemon juice, then set aside for a moment.
- Put a baking sheet in the oven.
- Make a well in the dry mix, then add the liquid and combine it quickly with a cutlery knife – it will seem pretty wet at first.
- Scatter some flour onto the work surface and tip the dough out. Dredge the dough and your hands with a little more flour, then fold the dough over 2-3 times until it’s a little smoother. Pat into a round about 4cm deep.
- Take a 5cm cutter(smooth-edged cutters tend to cut more cleanly, giving a better rise) and dip it into some flour. Plunge into the dough, then repeat until you have four scones. You may need to press what’s left of the dough back into a round to cut out another four.
