Instructions
1
Gather all ingredients.
2
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
3
Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl; cut in butter with 2 knives or a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4
Whisk milk and egg in a small bowl; gradually stir into flour mixture until moistened.
5
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead briefly, 5 or 6 turns.
6
Pat or roll dough out into a 1/2-inch thick round. Cut into 8 wedge-shaped pieces and place onto the prepared baking sheet.
7
Bake scones in the preheated oven until golden brown on top, about 15 minutes.
