The Thermomix is a great machine when it comes to preparing batter for scones.  Less than a minute, and they are done!

50g            butter
30g            sugar
1                egg
1tsp           vanilla essence
250mL      buttermilk
1/2 cup      raisins
pinch of salt




Method :

1)  Pulverise the butter and flour at turbo speed for 2 seconds.
2)  Add in the rest of the ingredients and knead for 20 seconds at dough setting.
3)  Open lid, scrape the sides of the thermomix bowl and knead again at dough setting for 10 seconds.
4)  Transfer the batter onto slightly floured surface and roll to 3 - 4 cm thick.
5)  Cut into round shape with a round cutter and place on baking pan lined with grease proof paper.
6)  Glaze with milk or beaten egg.
7)  Bake in preheated oven at 210 deg C for 8 minutes.


I like scones served with strawberry jam, homemade of course.
