Scones clássicos
Tall, golden British scones with a crisp crust and a soft, cloud-like crumb that splits cleanly for clotted cream and jam. A splash of lemon juice sours the milk so it reacts with the baking powder for extra lift, while cold butter rubbed in with light fingertips keeps the middle tender rather than tough. A quick chill before a hot 220°C oven sets the butter so the scones rise straight up instead of spreading.
