Dutch Oven Scones

Step 1

Preheat the Dutch oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2

Rub the butter with your fingertips into the flour and salt to form a breadcrumb-type texture.

Step 3

Add enough milk into the flour to form a light dough.

Step 4

Turn the dough out onto a floured board and gently knead just until the dough comes together. Cut out round scones.

Step 5

Sprinkle flour on the bottom of the preheated Dutch oven to prevent sticking. Arrange the scones evenly over the base of the Dutch oven. Brush the tops with additional milk.

Step 6

Heat your Dutch oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 7

Cook the scones until you can smell them, then one additional minute, this will take about 15 minutes total.
