Ingredients:
450g flour
180g sugar
pinch of salt
225g fat or butter
2 tbsp grated cooking apple
Method:
Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and bring together as a stiff dough (if the mixture isn't coming together then add just a little milk to bind).
Turn the dough onto a lightly-floured surface and roll out to about 6mm thick. Cut into rounds with a 6cm diameter pastry cutter. Heat a well-greased griddle pan and cook the cakes on this for about 3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and have cooked through. Scatter a little sugar over then and serve warm with butter and jam.
