In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

Cut the butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to rub the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Pour the milk mixture into the flour mixture and stir until just combined.

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it gently a few times until it comes together.

Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick circle and cut it into 8 wedges.

Place the scones on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
-
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown.
