Preparation method

  1. Preheat the oven to 220C/425F/Gas 7.

  2. Place the flour, baking powder, butter and sugar into a food processor and pulse until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.

  3. Add the egg and milk and pulse until the mixture comes together as a dough.

  4. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Roll out to 2cm/1in thick and cut out five 5cm/2in circles using a floured pastry cutter.

  5. Place the scones onto a baking sheet lined with baking paper and brush with milk. Transfer to the oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until golden-brown.

  6. For the raspberry jam, place the sugar, vanilla seeds and half the raspberries into a small pan and cook over a low heat for ten minutes. Remove from the heat, add the remaining raspberries and stir well. Leave to cool.

  7. To serve, place the scones onto a serving plate with the jam in a small bowl alongside. Serve with the whipped cream and dust with icing sugar.
