Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound bread flour
  • 1 teaspoon yeast, active dry
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 ounce butter melted
  • 1/4 pint milk warmed

Method

  • Using a food-processor, a food mixer with a dough hook, or your hands, mix the dry ingredients, add the warm milk and melted butter and mix and knead to a smooth elastic dough.
  • Cover with lightly oiled polythene and leave to rise until doubled in size - about 1 hour in a warm place.
  • Knock back and knead again briefly.
  • Divide the dough into eight and shape into small round buns.
  • Space them well apart on a greased baking tray.
  • Cover and set aside to prove (rise) until light and puffy - about 20 minutes.
  • Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown.
  • Cool, then cut each bun down the middle, from top to bottom but not all the way through.
  • Split open and fill with cream and jam.
  • Be generous, allowing plenty of jam and no less than 1 oz clotted cream per bun.
  • Then dust with icing sugar.
