Step 1
Heat oven to 400°F. Cut cold butter into small cubes and add to flour with sugar and a pinch of salt.
Step 2
Rub the butter into flour with your fingertips until it looks like coarse breadcrumbs, about 2 minutes.
Step 3
Pour milk in slowly while mixing with a fork until a shaggy dough just forms—do not overwork.
Step 4
Turn dough onto a floured surface and gently pat into a 1-inch-thick round. Cut into 8 wedges.
Step 5
Place scones on a sheet pan. Bake 12 minutes until the tops are pale golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
Step 6
Let cool 2 minutes. Serve warm with a dollop of clotted cream and a spoonful of strawberry jam on each.
