Instruction
- Preheat oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4 and line a baking tray with baking parchment
-
Mix the flour, sugar and baking powder in a bowl and rub in the cubed butter until the mixture looks like breadcrumbs, then mix in the dried fruit
-
In a clean bowl, beat the egg and milk together with the vanilla extract
-
Add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients and stir with a spoon until the mixture just comes together as a thick, lumpy dough
- Add a teaspoon more milk if you really need it to make the mixture stick together
-
Place golfball-sized spoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking tray
- Leave space between them as they will flatten and spread out to double their size during baking
-
Bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden-brown
- Remove from the oven, allow to cool for a couple of minutes then turn them out onto a wire rack to cool
