Milk scones step by step
Mix all the starter ingredients in a saucepan and beat with a whisk until all the lumps are dissolved..
Place over low heat and keep mixing with the whisk until the whisk forms line at the bottom. Switch off and keep mixing until it is well mixed. Allow it to cool to room temperature.
In a separate cup add the half cup of warm milk and a tablespoon of sugar together with the yeast. Mix well and leave it to rest for 5 minutes to allow the yeast to proof..
This is how it should look after 5 minutes.
Mix all the ingredients including the yeast and the starter in a bowl. Mix it using your hands or a mixer on dough hook. If using a mixer, start with level two..
When it starts coming together, reduce the speed to allow all the ingredients to incorporate properly.
You will know when it's done when dough is not sticking on the bowl. Also if you pock the dough with your finger it begins to rise back..
Cover the dough with cling film and allow it to rest for 30 minutes to an hour. The dough will have risen..
Make 8-10 small balls of the dough and place them on a greased plate.
Leave it to rest for at least 30 minutes..
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 180 degrees Celsius.
After the dough has rested, brush the rolls with egg wash and put some sesame seeds on top..
Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes. You know they are done when you insert a tooth pick and it comes out clean. Ensure you place some water in the oven so that the scones can retain some moisture..
Allow cooling on the baking tin for 10 minutes.
Then transfer them to a cooling rack. Serve when cooled. Enjoy 😉😉😉.
