Method
- Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4 and line a baking tray with baking parchment.
- Mix the flour, sugar, and baking powder in a bowl and rub in the cubed butter until the mixture looks like breadcrumbs. Then, mix in the dried fruit.
- In a clean bowl, beat the egg and milk together with the vanilla extract.
- Add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients and stir with a spoon until the mixture just comes together as a thick, lumpy dough. Add a teaspoon more milk if needed to make the mixture stick together.
- Place golfball-sized spoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking tray. Leave space between them as they will flatten and spread out to double their size during baking.
- Bake for 15–20 minutes, until golden-brown. Allow to cool for a couple of minutes, then turn them out onto a wire rack to cool.
