Cherry Scones Recipe😋

Warm, freshly baked cherry scones are best when topped with clotted cream, thick homemade jam, or lemon curd (Devonshire Cream or Creme Fraiche). Cherry scones are delicious and incredibly simple to make. They will undoubtedly please every member of your family and friends.

The Stone of Destiny is thought to be the source of the name (or Scone). Over a thousand years ago, Scottish kings were crowned on this stone. On the Stone, in 1953, the current British Queen Elizabeth II was installed. Scones were first baked on a griddle and made with oats. These days, they are made of flour, baked in an oven, and have a variety of shapes (triangles, rounds, squares, and diamonds).
