    I've been making these Thermomix Four Ingredient Scones for years now and while it's always been quick and easy to put together, using a Thermomix makes it dangerously easy to have a batch of these little beauties in the oven in no time at all - in fact you can be enjoying these scones in less than 30 minutes!

    If I had to choose my favourite morning or afternoon tea treat, without a doubt I would have to choose Scones.  There is nothing better than sitting down with a hot cup of tea and enjoying a freshly baked Scone which is slathered in Jam and Cream.

    Why you will love this recipe:

    • Budget friendly - these scones are made with pantry staples.
    • FOUR ingredients - there is no need for fancy ingredients when making this recipe!
    • Quick to prepare - you can be enjoying these scones in less than half an hour.
    • Freezer friendly - any leftover scones can be stored in the freezer for up to three months.

    Ingredients

    Please note you will find the full ingredient list and method in the recipe card below:

    • Self-raising Flour - it is ESSENTIAL to use self-raising flour for this recipe to ensure your scones rise.
    • Butter - Chilled butter is best as it will combine easily with the flour.
    • Milk - either full cream or reduced fat milk can be used for this recipe - please note you may need to add more flour if using a low fat milk.
    • Salt - if you really want to you can leave this out.

    How to Make 4 Ingredient Scones:

    1. Combine the self-raising flour and butter.

    2. Add the milk and salt and mix to combine.

    3. Select the kneading function and mix until a ball forms.

    4. Turn the dough onto a bench (or thermomat) which has been lightly dusted with flour. If your dough is sticky, add a tablespoon or two of flour until the desired consistency is reached. Gently shape the dough to form a rectangle.

    5. Use a round cookie cutter to cut out the scones and place onto a prepared baking tray. Lightly brush with milk.

    6. Bake until golden and cooked through.

    Expert tips for making 4 Ingredient Scones in the Thermomix:

    • Use butter that has come straight from the fridge.
    • Your mixture will be sticky - this is normal. Add a little extra flour once the dough has been transferred to bench.
    • Use your hands to lightly flatten the dough, don't use a rolling pin.
    • Be careful to not overwork the dough.
    • Place the scones close together on your baking tray, you want them to almost be touching each other.
    • Bake in a very hot oven.
    • To store, place in an airtight container and store in a cool place for up to four days.
    Can you freeze scones?

    Yes, you can freeze scones. Place into a freezer safe container and store for up to three months.

      You state to set the oven to 230deg which is 110 deg Celsius. This is clearly not right as my scones are still raw.
      Clearly you mean 230 degrees Celsius. Probably best to update this for the novice baker who’s never baked scones.

        Hi Charli, Thank you for the feedback. It is 230 degrees celsius, we are from Australia so all of our recipes are in metric/celsius. Thank you

      Wow, I've finally cracked perfect scone making. Have tried everything over the years and my scones have never been anything but middling. These are not only the best scones I've ever made but the best I've ever tasted. Buttery and soft as pillows. Thanks!

      I think this recipe is 500g of milk. Not 500 mls. I just made this exactly how it says and was way to sticky the dough. Blessings. Just letting you know

      OMG these are amazing, I have never made scones before and was a little nervous to try but I gave it a crack and WOW!!! So light and fluffy not sweet at all so I can happily add my strawberry jam for my indulgence. I used the thermomix cap from the lid (dipped in flour each time) and I made 34 small scones. Perfect size especially for my kids. I cooked them for 12mins on 220 fan forced. So glad I found your recipe I will have very excited kids when they get home from school. Thanks

      Hi there, I made these scones the other day and they were AMAZING !! A friend of mine actually wants me to make some for her birthday. Would they be ok to freeze? Once frozen what is the best way to defrost and heat them up?
      Thanks!!

      Hello,

      How do I substitute with normal flour + baking powder? What is the proportion? Please! Tks!

      Reply
      • Lauren Matheson says

        February 20, 2018 at 10:23 am

        Hi Roberta, I'm pretty sure it's 1 tsp of baking powder per cup (150g) of plain flour. I hope that helps
