Grandma's Scone Recipe

in scone •  7 years ago  (edited)

I remember nan baking these every Sunday they are simply the best. We would be out picking apples dribbling, because you could smell them baking in the oven. she would set up a little picnic under one of the trees with fresh jam and cream. everytime i bake these it brings back fond memories.

The Buttermilk seems to give it a little bit of an extra tang. Make sure to Serve with butter,cream and jam and fresh strawberries.
