Always make sure you get your parents help and advice before you start any cooking.
You will need a moderate oven for this recipe so set your temperature and pre-heat your oven before you start.


What you will need:)

1 Medium Sized Mixing Bowl
1 Small Mixing Bowl
1 Knife
1 Fork
1 Dessertspoon
1 Baking Tray
1 Flour Sieve
1 Pinch Of Salt
½ lb of Self-Rasing Flour
3 Ounces Of Butter
3 Ounces Of Sugar
4 Ounces Of Sultanas (or Currants)
2 Tablespoons Of Milk
1 Egg

How To Make:)

Start by lightly greasing your baking tray and then put it aside (out of the way) until you need it.

Sift the flour and the salt together into your medium mixing bowl. Rub in the butter until the mixture starts looking like breadcrumbs. Then add in the sugar and sultanas and mix it all together with your knife.

With your fork lightly beat your egg and milk together in the small mixing bowl and then add them to your flour and sultana mixture. Stir it all together with your knife until you have a dough.

With your dessertspoon grab spoonfuls of the mixture and put them on your greased baking tray. You don’t need to make perfect round shapes. When you put them on the tray remember that they will get bigger while they are cooking so spread them about 1 to 2 inches apart.

After you’ve done that carefully put them in a moderate oven for about 10 to 15 minutes. When done carefully take the tray out and allow them to cool before eating them.
