    lemonade scones

    I saw this recipe on FB some time ago so today I gave it a go and I must say they went down well , just plain scones with jam and cream , my DD doesn't like fruit scones, so she loved them

    8 oz SR flour
    150 mils double cream
    150 mils lemonade
    nothing else just those three things.

    mix all ingredients in a bowl with a metal knife ( no idea why but it has to be a knife ) , at first it doesn't look like it will work but it mixes to a soft dough
    turn it out onto a floured work top and kneed lightly for 1 minute then cut out . My mixture made 6
    place on a tray close together but not touching , think they support each other , bake on 200 for 15 mins mine took 20 mins
    cool and dollop with jam and cream .
    DD and SIL made short work of them and although I prefer fruit scones I did like these they were very light.

    The recipe on FB said( 4) cups of flour, (I) 300 mill cream (1 )can lemonade but that made 12 scones too much for us so I halved the quantity wasn't sure how much 4 cups of flour was so used 8 oz

            They sound different. I will make some for the GCs on Friday.

              Fizzy Gem I think that's what gives them the rise , and you do get a fresh hint of lemon but not much , you wouldn't notice it if you didn't know lemonade was in it xx

                  I made them yesterday. There were 10 and very quickly there were none and a request for more, more, more. 😄

                          They sound delish ladies I am very fond of scones with a hot cup of tea mid afternoon so will get my self organised and make some after the good comments here.

                              I've only just seen this thread, and I've never made scones of any sort, ever. This sounds really easy, but I can't eat cream, so I'm wondering if they would work with creme fraiche or good, thick yoghurt?
