    Thanks for showing these! In America scones are triangle sweet pastries with icing. These Irish scones are what my grandmother from western Ireland taught her daughters. I grew up eating these with butter and jelly only they had raisins instead of currants. Miss my aunts and their wonderful baking. Happy St Patrick's Day

    Yea no English tea scones- we want the real Irish style flutted scones.
    Great tip on rubbing between the fingers to get the little “knobs” of butter.
    “Butter and jam is your only man” lol
    I pronounce them The way you do.
    I Cuban so I never grew up eating scones as a child- but when I lived in Chicago we had them with whipped cream jam and butter-

    I love scones. And i love making it. Its just so satisfying when you can get the crumbly dough together 😅. We, in Malaysia, pronounce our scones just like you. And we usually eat them with cream or butter and jam. Its difficult and expensive to get clotted cream here.

    Scone rhymes with con, at least here in Scotland. Must give these a go though, any time I've made them before I've overworked the dough and essentially ended up with biscuits. Butter, jam and optionally cream is usual here, in that order.

Hmm... despite eating lunch while watching this, I'm feeling like a scone and tea right now.

    Butter & jam of course. I've made them twice so far before I found your video. They were delishious but came out like soda bread. They colapsed on me if you know what I mean. Not sure where I went wrong. I did cut them into squares as I did'nt have any cookie cutters (coming in Tuesday). Where am I going wrong?

My mom was born and raised in Ireland and she and her sisters came over to America when they were 18 in 1953. she passed when I was 19. I'm adopted but I was raised Irish/Italian so seeing homemade scones makes my mouth water and my heart hurt. Do you ever use caraway seeds? How much would you add for this?

    If you are using normal flour, don't forget self-raising flour has 1-2 tsp of baking powder (and/or soda addition) per cup of flour, 2 tsp of a rising agent in total. Also, it seems the recipe has too little liquid/milk. I had a difficult time making dough, and it worked well for about half of it, so I had to add almost an extra cup of milk or some water.

  • @GlennReschke
    @GlennReschke 3 года назад

    I tried this recipe yesterday. It didn't turn out so well. However, I used Lakanto monk fruit sugar instead of normal table sugar. I also used almond milk over cow's milk. So, maybe that's why it didn't turn out so well.
