INGREDIENTS:

2 cups flour (soft wheat or spelt is best)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons cold butter
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup milk kefir

INSTRUCTIONS:

Preheat oven to 425°F.
In a medium bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut butter into chunks and cut into flour using fingers or a pastry cutter until the size of small peas.
Add sugar and slowly mix in kefir until a dough forms. The dough should just hold together and not be too sticky. Knead briefly to bring the dough together and turn out onto a floured surface.
Roll out into a 1 1/2-inch thick round or rectangle. Use a 2-inch biscuit cutter to cut out the scones and transfer to a baking sheet. Knead together scraps and cut into more scones until all of the dough is used up.
Bake 10-15 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack and serve warm with <a "="" title="How to Make Cultured Butter" href="https://www.culturesforhealth.com/learn/cream/how-to-make-cultured-butter/" target="_blank">cultured butter, clotted or whipped cream, and jam.
