Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

Recipe's preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 220'C.
  2. Measure the flour, sugar, baking powder, butter and salt into the mixing bowl. Insert measuring cup. Turbo 1 sec / 4-5 times
  3. Carefully measure and pour in the buttermilk, measuring into the measuring cup if you're worried you might overpour. (If you don't have buttermilk you can just use normal milk). Mix 5 sec / speed 5
  4. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and measure in the dried fruit and knead/ 30 sec /Dough mode
  5. Tip the dough out onto the baking tray. Shape into a circle approx 1" thick and cut out triangle segments (approx 8 pieces). If using a scone cutter be careful not to overwork the dough or it will lose it's light fluffy texture.
  6. Separate the pieces and brush with milk or egg yolk. (I forgot in the pic that's why mine look so pale!). Bake 12-15mins. Smaller scones will cook quicker - check by knocking underneath and it will make a hollow sound when done.
  7. Serve with fresh cream, jam or butter.

    Love this recipe, have made it several times already. It's so quick and the smell of fresh scones is divine. I leave out the dried fruits and substitute with seeds, nuts or whatever I have at home really.
