Scone Blasphemy

[The Late Night Gourmet]

In the Netherlands we have the same kind of debate, half of the population says 'patat' when they mean fries, and the other half says 'friet' which also means fries. There's a continous discussion of who is right. I just call it 'frietpatat'

How about this:

fries + diet = friet = French fries diet!

I have been eating fruit scones for a few days now, only butter, if we had jam I would but not cream because I am not a fan.

When I follow UK recipes for scones...they rarely turn out very well.

You'll have to try my recipe for scones... mind you the trick with British scones is that the dough isn't too wet and the key thing, don't roll it out too thinly. Hot oven also helps

Still warm from the oven are the best.

The scone in the initial post is already not going to be eaten by me, not with all those raisins lurking in it.

A scone should be served warm, so the butter will melt. No jam needed. What kind of cream is used? I could see cream cheese, but nothing that would pour.

Recipe - Chocolate Chip/Fruit Scones (dairy free or normal with appropriate substitutions)

Thread numbers 9 & 10 almost 9 years ago.
Take careful note. An 8oz recipe will make 6 large scones or 8 small ones. Don't try for anything more else they are too thin and don't work
