Air Fryer Fruit scones

Instructions

1. Load into a bowl the flour and the sugar and then add in the butter chopped into chunks.
2. Mix the fat into the flour and sugar until you have a bowl of coarse breadcrumbs.
3. Then add in the egg and currants and mix well.
4. Next, add enough milk to make dough. Adding a little milk at a time until you have a soft dough ball.
5. Roll out your dough on a floured worktop with a floured rolling pin. Go thin like us for smaller fruit scones or double the thickness for traditional scones.
6. Use your favorite cookie or scone cutter and make equal scone circles.
7. Then place into the air fryer as many as will fit, then brush egg wash on the tops and then air fry for 8 minutes at 180c/360f doing it in batches if needed.
8. Then serve with butter and cheese.

Notes

1. Milk. I recommend having 60ml/4tbsp of milk for helping bind together your scones dough. Then adding a little at a time. You can always add extra but you can’t take it away.
2. Currants. I used just 50g of currants, you can of course double this if you like a lot of currants in your dough.
3. Height. Note our fruit scones are half the height of those purchased in shops. This is because we don’t have a huge appetite and find this is enough for us. If you want them more traditional then roll the dough to double the thickness of ours then you will have 6 and you will then have much higher ones.
