Scone Ingredients
Method
Scone Preparation
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
Cut in Butter
Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add Mix-ins
Gently fold in the dried cranberries for the sweet scones and the cheddar cheese and chives for the savory scones.
Shape the Scones
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and pat it into a circle about 1 inch thick. Cut into wedges or use a round cutter for individual scones.
Bake
Place the scones on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
Cool and Serve
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving with jam and butter.
