8 servings
- •1.75 cups all-purpose flour
- •4 teaspoons baking powder
- •5 tablespoons unsalted butter
- •5 tablespoons white sugar
- •0.67 cup whole milk
- •0.5 cup currants
- •1 egg yolk, beaten
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or line with baking parchment.
- Sift flour and baking powder into a medium bowl. Rub butter and sugar into flour to form a fine crumble. Make a well in center, and add milk and currants. Knead gently together, being careful not to over mix. Dough will be sticky.
- On a generously floured surface, roll out dough to 3/4 inch thickness. Stamp out 2 1/2 inch rounds with a plain pastry cutter. Transfer to prepared pan, and brush tops with egg yolk. Allow to stand for 15 minutes.
- Bake in preheated oven until risen and lightly golden on top, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove to a rack to cool.
