Ingredients
  • 2 cups of sifted flour
  • 1/3 cup of canola oil
  • 1/4 cup of sugar
  • 1/4 cup of milk + 2 tablespoons
  • 1 teaspoon of fennel seeds
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 teaspoon of salt
  • 2 teaspoons of baking powder leveled
  • 1/4 cup minus a tablespoon of sugar to roll the scones in
Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375-degrees
  2. In a large mixing bowl: add the sifted flour, 1/4 cup of sugar, fennel seed, baking powder, salt before pouring in the milk, oil and egg. Stir the ingredients only to moisten and combine them. You can use a fork or wooden spoon.
  3. Roll into small balls.
  4. To prepare the sugar coating: Use slight less than about 1/4 more of sugar and roll the shaped scones in the sugar to coat all sides before placing on a well-greased baking pan.
  5. Bake at 375-degrees for 10-12 minutes, depending on how your oven is regulated. The bottoms will be slightly brown to indicate doneness.
  6. Cool in the pan for about a minute before removing.
  7. ENJOY!
