Preheat your oven to 375F/190C.
Sift all the dry ingredients into a bowl.
Rub in the butter until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
Add the beaten egg, treacle and buttermilk and mix until you have a soft dough.
Roll out on a floured surface until the scone dough is approximately 2.5cm/1 inch thick and cut into rounds. I get 7-8 scones from this quantity of dough.
Place on a floured baking sheet, brush the tops with milk and bake for 10-12 minutes.
Remove to a wire rack to cool for as long as you can hold out. Then break open, butter and enjoy!
