Cooking Instructions

  1. Place the flour, salt, butter and sugar in a mixing bowl and rub together using your fingertips until the mixture resembles large breadcrumbs.
  2. Add the buttermilk and use a wooden spoon to just bring the mixture together to form a dough. Place on a floured surface and shape into a ball, then gently roll out into a thickness of 3–4 cm.
  3. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out rounds of dough, then place on a braai grid over low coals and cook undisturbed for 20 minutes, or until the scones have a slightly charred crust.
  4. Gently turn and cook the other side for a further 20 minutes, or until cooked through and golden.
  5. Serve with the crème fraîche and spoonfuls of blackberry jam.
