Ingredients

3 cups self raising flour (plus extra)
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
400g coconut milk*

Method

Mix flour, sugar and salt together in a bowl. Make a well in the centre and lightly mix in the coconut milk to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface and gently form into a round, adding more flour if the dough is sticky and taking care not to overknead. Use a floured scone cutter to cut into scones. Place on a floured oven tray. Using the leftover coconut milk that is inside the can and a pastry brush, brush the tops of the scones with coconut milk. Bake in the upper half of the oven at 220°C for 10-12 minutes until golden brown. Serve with jam and/or cream.
* Do not immediately discard the can as the leftover coconut milk inside is used to brush the scones!
