Ingredients
For the Scones
3 cups of self raising flour
2 cups plus 2 tablespoons of thickened cream
For the Chocolate

3 teaspoons of coconut oil
2 teaspoons of maple syrup

Method
  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius.

  • Place a second piece of baking paper on top and a third piece of paper on a baking tray.
  • Gently roll out the dough. Dough should be about 1 and 1/2 cm high.

  • For all plain continue with second half of the dough.
  • To make half chocolate swirl scones mix cacao powder in a small bowl with the maple syrup and coconut oil.
  • Take spoonfuls of the chocolate and add to some of the remaining mixture. Roll out as before and cut into rounds.
  • For fun you can also use different shaped cookie cutters.
