- Pinch of Salt
Lemonade Scones (Fail Proof)
With just 3 ingredients you, yes you, can have a delicious batch of scones. Don’t believe me well just get your bowl and ingredients out and success is yours. These scones are light and fluffy and fail proof- meaning any level of cook can get them right. I’m sure most people have memories of scones, whether from your grandmas recipes or even high tea. When ever someone mentions scones, I think of my mum. You ask why? Its not the most obvious that she makes the best scones, actually it’s the opposite. For a women who is a fabulous cook she has never mastered the art of scones- which baffles me. So this post is to hopefully inspire her to give it yet another try.
WOODEN SPOON RATING:
NOW FOR THE RECIPE:
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees.
1. Place the flour, cream and a pinch of salt in a bowl and combine well
2. Add the lemonade without over beating, and mix into the batter. If too sticky add more flour.
3. Place dough on a floured surface and roll out to 4cm depth
4. Using a cutter, cut out each scone.
5. Turn the heat of the oven down to 190 degrees and place scones on the middle rack
6. Cook for 12 mins until lightly brown on the top
To Serve:
Best eaten warm from the oven with clotted cream and jam (and of course some tea)
Clotted Cream:Is used across England but is very easy to make. 3 parts Thicken cream, 1 part sour cream, 1 part icing sugar
TIPS:
- When cutting don’t turn the ring instead push straight down- this helps with to give an even top

Oh dear not scones. The only successful scones I have are the ones everyone else makes me. Guess what? You have now become everyone else. I will expect a batch in the very near future. Ingredients are in my cupboard
haha, you still need to learn- as I said, fool proof
How cool! Do the finished scones taste of lemonade at all?? Or do the bubbles just give you a fluffy and slightly sweet scone?
The lemonade is tasteless, although you dont need to add any sugar, it also gives a light and fluffy taste.
Wow, only THREE ingredients?! I’m amazed, I have to give it a try!!
Well kinda 4- salt. :)
I’ve heard that lemonade scones are one of the best foolproof recipes around but I never had spare cream in my fridge. lol. Must fix this pronto and get around to trying this recipe soon!
Definately fool proof. Im the same, I never have cream in the fridge unless I know I am going to cook with it.
