Cranberry Rooibos Scones

Made with Red Original Organic Rooibos Tisane

Plump, golden scones with juicy cranberries and the warm, mellow notes of organic rooibos. Steep the milk overnight for the most intense flavour, you won't regret it.

Makes: 12 scones

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tbsp baking powder
  • 2 Tbsp sugar
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 3 Tbsp butter
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup dried cranberries
  • 1 Tbsp Red Original Organic Rooibos Tisane

Method

  1. Pour milk and rooibos into a saucepan and bring to the boil. Remove from heat and set aside for 30 minutes, or steep overnight in the refrigerator for a more intense flavour. Strain if desired.
  2. Mix flour, baking powder, sugar and salt together in a medium bowl. Cut in butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Stir in the beaten egg, then gradually add the rooibos milk until a thick dough forms. Fold in dried cranberries.
  4. Turn dough onto a floured board and knead lightly. Roll out to 2cm thickness and cut into 5cm rounds.
  5. Place close together on a greased baking tray and brush tops with milk.
  6. Bake at 230°C for 10 minutes, until well risen and golden. Serve warm with cream and jam.
