This is a recipe I came across a couple of years ago that I just love. It is so simple and quick that you can make the whole mess from start to finish in about 2o min.You can also make a lot of additions to these which is nice because you can suit them to breakfast, lunch or dinner.
2 cups all purpose flour
4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup milk*1/2 cup blueberries, raspberries, cranberries, lemon/orange zest, cheddar, cooked bacon, herbs (rosemary, sage, chives, dill)
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Grease a baking sheet.
Combine flour, baking powder and salt. Cut butter in until mixture has a fine crumb texture. Stir in milk with a fork to make a soft dough. *If adding extras, add them now. Knead 8-10 times and then pull off clumbs about the size of a golf ball. Shape them slightly and then let them rest on the pan for about 5 min.
Bake for about 10-12 min. Serve warm with honey, jam, butter or just the way they are.
Yay it's working now!!!!
