• Add the egg, plain flour and bicarbonate of soda and mix on a low speed until combined.

Steps:

• Mix all dry ingredients together.
• With pastry blender cut in butter.
• Add milk and mix well to form dough.
• Knead just a few times until smooth on a floured surface.
• DO NOT overwork, handle as little as possible.
• Roll to desired thickness and cut with a floured cutter or bottom of drinking glass.
• (I tend to cut them fairly thick so I never get the maximum 14 biscuits, more like 10-12!).
• Bake at 375 for 12-13 minutes.
• (I find it only takes about 10 minutes in my particular oven).
