Experience the magic of Air Fryer Fruit Scones – golden, bite-sized delights with a tender crumb and juicy currants..
Ingredients:
- 225 g Self Raising Flour
- 50 g Unsalted Butter
- 35 g Caster Sugar
- 50 g Currants
- 1 Medium Egg
- 1 Small Egg beaten
- 60 ml Skimmed Milk
- Kitchen Gadgets
- Philips Air Fryer
- Round Cookie Cutters Set
Instructions:
- Load into a bowl the flour and the sugar and then add in the butter chopped into chunks.
- Mix the fat into the flour and sugar until you have a bowl of coarse breadcrumbs.
- Then add in the egg and currants and mix well.
- Next add enough milk to make a dough. Adding a little milk at a time until you have a soft dough ball.
- 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.
- Use your favourite cookie or scone cutter and make equal scone circles.
- 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.
- Then serve with butter and cheese.
Notes:
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.
Currants: I used just 50g of currants, you can of course double this if you like a lot of currants in your dough.
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.
