Discard Scones

I couldn't find a decent scone recipe for sourdough discard, so I decided to experiment with making one myself!

I basically used an easy scone recipe and replaced some of the milk part with the discard.

Ingredients:

3 Cups of Self-raising flour

100g cold salted butter, diced

1 cup sourdough discard

3/4 cup milk

Method:

Preheat oven to 180°C

Using your fingertips, rub the butter into the flour until it looks like breadcrumbs.

Add the starter and the milk and mix until it starts to turn into a dough. Add more milk if needed.

Turn the dough out on the a floured bench and knead until it just comes together.

Roll out to about an inch thick and cut out about 12 individual pieces

Place on a lined baking tray and brush the tops with extra milk. 

Bake for about 20mins.
