Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and star anise.
-
Cut the butter into small cubes and add it to the dry ingredients. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to mix the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
-
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it a few times to bring it together. Pat the dough into a circle about 1 inch (5 cm) thick.
-
Use a star-shaped cookie cutter to cut out mini scones from the dough. Place the scones on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
-
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown. Remove from the oven and let them cool for 10 minutes before serving.
