Scones with Orange Zest & Hazelnuts
Serves 12
400g oats
60g buckwheat flour
1¼ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
2 tbsp sugar
Zest of 1 orange
2 heaped tbsp hazelnuts 70g cold butter
200ml milk or plant-based milk
Pre-heat the oven to 220°C (200°C fan forced).
Mix all the dry ingredients in a baking bowl. Stir in hazelnuts. Cut the cold butter in small cubes and crumble into the flour mix. Add milk and stir to a soft dough.
Use your hands to form the dough into a circle and place in a lined 24-cm baking tin.
Press the dough down, cut into four pieces with a knife, brush with water and put in the oven for 20 minutes. The scones are best eaten lukewarm, fresh from the oven.
