I have had to adjust my diet to a low fat diet but if I sneak the occasional treat in now and again I am ok. I fancied something sweet so decided on scones as these do not have too much fat content in them.
I did a batch of plain scones and a batch with cherries in them.
Here is the recipe
200g self raising flour
30g margarine
30g sugar
120ml of milk ( add a little more if needed)
fruit or cherries are optional, I added 40g of cherries to the scones mix
Method
Mix the marg and flour together until they look like fine breadcrumbs. Add the sugar and mix in well, now add the fruit if you decide to add it. Stir in the milk with a knife until it starts to come together to form a ball. Lightly shape it into a ball and roll out to 1/4" thick on a lightly floured cooking board.
Put in a pre-heated oven gas mark 5 and cook until they are golden on top.
Cool and enjoy.
