Using the mixing blade on LOW speed
1.Place the flour and salt into the processing bowl and process until well combined. Add the butter and process until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. While motor is running, gradually pour the required amount of milk down the feed tube until mixture forms a ball around the blade (approx 30 seconds), do not overmix the dough as this will toughen the scones.
2.Place the dough on the floured board and knead lightly. Cut into rounds with a scone cutter. Place each close together on a lightly greased oven slide. Glaze with milk and bake in a hot oven
