Scones with walnuts

Simple and fast option for breakfast or mid-day snack. Or any-time-of-a-day snack. Have them with jam or butter, with tea or coffee, or just sneak in the darkness of the night. :)

Ingredients

2.5 cups of flour (can combine all-purpose and buckwheat or whole-wheat flour)
1 tbs baking powder
1/2 spoon salt
100 g cold butter
1/4 cup sugar
2/3 cups milk
1egg
walnuts
cinnamon
dates or cranberries (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the oven (175C).
Mix flour and baking powder. Add butter and rub with fingers until combined (it will form small ball-like pieces). Add sugar and spices, and blend it well. Add milk and egg, blend until smooth and well-mixed. Form a dough into a ball, then roll it into a ball, approx 6 inch in diameter (approx.15cm). Dough makes at least 2 balls.  Cut each into 6-8 wedges. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
Put it in the oven and bake until they get brownish on the top (usually it takes around 10-12 min).

Enjoy!
