What You'll Need for Fruit Scones in the Air Fryer
Essential Ingredients
200g self-raising flour
50g butter
25g sugar
100ml milk
75g dried fruit mix
Pinch of salt
Glazed Scones
For a charming finish, glaze the tops with milk before air frying to achieve a shiny, golden brown surface. Use a pastry brush for even application over each scone.
Why Use Self-Raising Flour
Self-raising flour ensures a fail-proof rise, thanks to its built-in leavening. This is crucial for air frying, as it guarantees fluffy, well-cooked scones. Always sift it to remove lumps and ensure even mixing with other ingredients.
Steps to Make Fruit Scones in the Air Fryer
Here’s how to create perfect scones.
Mix flour, butter, and salt until crumbly.
Add sugar and dried fruits, mix well.
Stir in milk gradually to form a dough.
Roll out and cut into rounds, dust with flour.
Preheat air fryer to 180°C.
Place scones in basket, not touching.
Air fry for 12 minutes until golden brown.
Avoid Overcooking
Watch your scones closely as they cook. Since air fryer models vary, check for a golden brown top around 10 minutes to prevent dryness.
Enjoy your fruit scones warm with clotted cream and jam. Pair with a pot of tea for an authentic teatime experience. Alternatively, serve with a sprinkle of icing sugar on top for a sweeter treat.
