What You’ll Need

Ingredient Quantity
Dough Pro Scone Mix 500 g
Cooking Oil 120 ml
Milk 550 ml
Vanilla Essence 5 ml / 1 tsp

Method

1. Add the wet ingredients

Add the cooking oil, milk and vanilla essence into a mixing bowl.

Set the mixer to slow speed.


2. Add the scone mix

Add the Dough Pro Scone Mix into the mixing bowl.

Mix on slow speed for approximately 1 minute, or until the ingredients begin to combine.


3. Scrape and finish mixing

Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl to make sure all the dry mix is fully incorporated.

Mix again on second speed for a further 2 minutes, or until the scone dough comes together.


4. Roll and cut

Remove the dough from the mixing bowl and place it onto a lightly floured surface.

Using a rolling pin, gently flatten the dough to approximately 3.5 cm to 4 cm thickness.

Cut into rounds using your preferred scone cutter.


5. Bake until golden

Place the cut scones onto a baking tray.

Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 10–12 minutes, or until the scones are baked through and lightly golden.


Baker’s Tips

Do not overwork the dough after mixing. Handle it gently to help keep the scones soft.

For a more golden finish, lightly brush the tops with milk before baking.

For extra flavour, you can add raisins, cranberries, choc chips or grated cheese, depending on whether you want a sweet or savoury scone.

Use a sharp scone cutter and press straight down without twisting. This helps the scones rise more evenly.


Serving Ideas

Serve warm with butter, jam and cream for a classic tea-time treat.

You can also serve Dough Pro scones with cheese, whipped cream, fruit preserves or honey.

For cafés and bakeries, scones can be served as part of breakfast menus, tea platters, catering boxes or grab-and-go bakery displays.


Storage & Reheating

Scones are best enjoyed fresh on the day they are baked.

Once cooled, store in an airtight container. To refresh before serving, warm gently in the oven for a few minutes.
