"Has someone got a reliable scone recipe they're willing to share please? I've tried two separate versions in the last week, and both gave pretty poor results " The problem isnt your recipe, its your method! Scones need the lightest of light touches, as not to develop the gluten. When rubbing the butter into the flour, use your fingers like feathers. When you add the liquid, stir just enough to bring it together. Dont kneed, roll once for all the scones and dont twist the cutter! | |||

I think my baking powder may be past it’s best tbh; bbe 2018 I always rub the butter in by hand, but I’ll try to be a bit more gentle next time too, cheers | |||

"The ultimate question: Once scones are cooked, what goes on first cream or jam?" Always jam first. | |||
