    Preparation Steps

    1

    Prepare the ingredients. Toast the sunflower seeds lightly in a dry skillet to enhance their flavor.

    2

    In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and a pinch of salt.

    3

    Dice the cold butter, add it to the flour mixture, and rub it in with your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

    4

    Add the toasted sunflower seeds to the dough and mix well.

    5

    In a separate bowl, whisk the egg and milk together. Gradually add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.

    6

    Shape the dough into a disc and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Slightly flatten the top and use a sharp knife to cut crosswise slits into the surface, dividing it into wedges.

    7

    Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until the scones are nicely golden brown.

    8

    Let the scones cool slightly before serving as desired.
