As a British person and a baker I can confirm these are American Scones nothing like English scones. Our scones are more like the American Biscuits but slightly sweet and the only 3 flavour options traditionally are plain, “fruit scones” which are dried currents and raisins or savoury cheese scones. Then sweet scones are traditionally served with clotted cream and Jam or butter. And they are always round, never triangle and never with icing.
As someone that has lived in the UK, scones are actually sweet bread buns, therefore they usually come in round shape, which are cut in half so ingredients like cream-frae, butter and jam can be spread on top. Also, their dough is usually plain or comes with pieces of dry fruits like sultana raisins. But overall I loved this version of scones recipe. It was very creative and it’s a nice treat to have around😊!!!
I made this recipe, blueberry one today and it came out amazing! It was very easy to make and surprise me with how delicious they were. Thank you for sharing your recipe!
Yumm! I am going to make several of these versions for church tomorrow. We have a lot of college students come, and they love home baked goodies. Thanks for the recipes!
very yummy thank you ! Substituted heavy cream with 1cup of milk and 1 tb of vinegar. Therefore changed the baking powder to 1 1/4 teaspoons and 1/4 baking soda
This isn’t a criticism, just a correction. Your scones look delicious, but they are Americanized scones, not British ones. British scones are more like a lightly sweetened (American) biscuit. They even look like biscuits. They’re usually cut with a circular cutter, or some use a glass of the desired circumference to cut them. The most common flavor is plain but if you want a fruit scone, currants or other raisins are used. They’re usually cut open and spread with clotted cream and/or jam. Again, I’m not throwing shade, just providing information.
These aren't British Scones but they're better than Starschmucks, which is what Americans think are scones. Once you have a 'real' scone, you never go back. Fortunately for me, my first introduction to scones was on a British Airways flight in the 90's, of all places. I was hooked and spent much of my times in the UK searching for the best scone recipe. I learned to make them with 2 eggs and whole milk but this looks more like a biscuit recipe I have (sans the egg) and it's very good so these actually might come very close. At least they won't be those hockey pucks that I've found everywhere else. The trick to a good scone is that they're freshly baked. Sitting in a display cabinet all day makes them into a triangular Stone of Scone!! LOL
From UK here, most typical flavour I see is Raisin instead of Blueberry but all your versions looked great too! Cut em in half and top with butter, jam and cream!
Omg i used your recipe. Coconut milk instead of milk and no egg. They came out super bouncy! Though 12 minutes wasnt long enough (though i have an old not very good oven) so i left it for qnother 3-4 mins. They are super duper soft and taste soooooo good. Thank you so much!
I just made your scones using Chocolate Chips ! Excellent ! I hope one day you consider writing a Cook Book ! I would for sure purchase it ! Thank you for another great recipe 👍👍👍
Thank you for you support and glad you gave these recipes a try (: Right now I am focusing my time on making free recipes but if I make a cook book I will let you know!
Thanks for this Americanized version! I will make them "British-style" with currants, and cut them out in a circle. But great to have the proportions for the ingredients in cups, etc, as that is what I am used to. Now, I have to look up a recipe for clotted cream...
I use a mandoline instead of a grater for the butter, for two reasons: it's easier to clean, and the slices of butter mimic the traditional layers better than grated, making my scones flakier. Thank you for your wonderful recipes.
Yummy! I can't wait to try these! I love recipes that are versatile and you can add what you have on hand. My fave is cran orange.. thanks for adding that recipe!😋
Just made these in flavors blueberry-lemon, apple-date & cranberry-orange. My family loved them & said they like these better than Starbucks & aubonpain!!! Total hit. Thank you.
I made the cranberry version today (without egg) and they were absolutely delicious! The 1 cup of liquid was too much for me though, so I will adjust this next time. Other than that.... Pure delight!
Made these with strawberries instead of blueberries. Did just about everything the same, but I added 1/8 tsp. lemon extract, took five more minutes in the oven, and topped the glaze with some chopped pecans. Incredible. Thank you for the recipe!
Thank you for this recipe I made the Blueberry and it was delicious our town is known as the Blueberry Capital and I am always looking for Blueberry recipes to make and share on my RUclips channel Mimi’s Country Cooking Can’t wait to try the other flavors
Oh my god. These are so flipping good I can’t stop making them!! Everyone thinks I’m a master baker! I make the chocolate but I also add 1/2 cup oatmeal and 1/2 cup chopped pecans.
I just put your easy scones in the oven. I used the only thing i had , a Hershey Bar and a touch of vanilla. Topped with blue colored sugar. Hope they are good. lol they were sure easy
me too .... I got another tip elsewhere to get your hands in there and flatten the butter into the dough for more flakiness .... used both for my blueberry lemon batch ..nom nom
I made this recipe again but without the egg and it turned out just as good as with the egg! I found that without the egg , the dough came out perfect. I made the cranberry orange scone. When I added the egg the first time, my dough was too wet but it baked well anyways!
I love these scones!!! They’re way better than the dry version. Just a note for high altitude bakers: add a bit more flour at the end to form a dough or it may be sticky. Otherwise these turned out great!
That sounds really good. I'm wondering what would be better, adding in dried or macerating them in either a juice or light rum first. I also thought of maybe using apricot jelly or jam in the icing.
So for the last two weeks I've made Scones for my Grandsons Play intermission. I made them with Cranberry/orange, Bacon /Maple, Cheese pepperoni olive, and without olive; Apple walnut and Banana. when I made the Chesses Pepperoni I used Mixed Italian seasoning instead of Sugar. They were all will received.
Great video. I just finished making 8 blueberry scones. They are not as “good looking” as yours but I’ll get better as time goes on. “thanks again... they sure do taste good.
Thank you for sharing your recipe, I can't wait to try it out. Orange Chocolate Chip FTW!!!! And not those store bought chips from a bag, but get some good quality bakers block chocolate and cut the chocolate down into 1/2" squares! One step you could add to the recipe is; right before you cut them into eights, form the 'disk' into a square and cut into halves and stack them, smash that down then rinse and repeat this a few times, reform your disk and then cut your eights, you will get a flakier scone ;')
Going to try this tomorrow. Is there a basic recipe for the savory scones? Fell in love with them on a trip to England some 30-years ago... still searching for the fountain head from which all savory scones begin... :)
Thank you so much for this recipe how-to! I want to try to make the dense creamy raspberry scone I had at a bakery years ago, so I will leave out the egg. I remember it was dense and satisfying, not too sweet. Looking forward to my next baking adventure. Wish me luck :)
Thank you so much for this easy receipe. I made the scones today and they are very delecious. But to be honest i had no cream at home so i used vanilla yogurt instead and the scones turned so good.
love this recipe. mine turned out nearly perfect. i live in a high altitude town, so next time i will use half the amount of baking powder. as for the taste, they are the best scones i’ve ever had!
As a tip...add your fruit or chocolate chips first, before adding the wet ingredients, so you can easily combine them with the dry ingredients. Especially with the blueberries, if you add it in after the wet ingredients, it’s harder to combine that you run the risk of crushing the berry and it bleeding...which seemed to have happened in this case. However, if it does, it’s ok...it all goes in the tummy anyway...but if you do want it easier to combine and less bleeding, best to add it before you add the wet ingredients.
ok, just made these, so I was specifically looking for a scone that was kind of a cross between what I know to be traditional English scones and American Scones. This is it! The dough is VERY wet. I left it like that and shaped my 8 (ended up with 10) best I could. Wasn't at all worried about presentation as my sons will eat them before looking. So perfect! Reminds me of a cookie my great grandma used to make but I can't recall the cookie itself, just the texture. I made cinnamon scones, but I am going to make walnut and raison next. Very good taste and texture. Now I'm going to have to make clotted cream!! oh the pain. :-)
This morning felt like making scones but, didn’t want a huge hassle as it is very early Sunday morning (up due to a nightmare lol) anyways I was floored when I popped open the oven ! I had made the night before clotted cream and we will certainly enjoy these scones this morning.😊👌Great recipe and I am now following you to see what worse is up your sleeves

Barefoot in the kitchen I love it🤣🤣🤣🤣 I saw the reflection in the oven no there's nothing but love coming from that kitchen
Shhh it's a secret haha
"Ain't nothin' like cooking with "naked feet" ... Gotta Luv it !!!
@@Thestayathomechef oops! sorry 🤗
Ha Ha! I noticed that, too! No secret anymore, dear!
haha i noticed too and it made me so happy! Love this page!!!

Dark Iris i agree with this. also scones from here dont have cream in

Yeah. The flour needs to be sifted to let Air in. Who the hell eats blueberry scones in the uk. Plain, sultana or cherry only
@@tysona23 She isn't in the UK ....don't like it .. move on ...no need to be arrogant or swear
I agree ..it was a mistake to label the video "British" ... Thank you for being kind Dark Iris
I really love scones with ham and cheese. I add cheese and ham to the dough and then put it in the oven to bake. It is delicious! 😋
Sounds delicious!
From UK here, most typical flavour I see is Raisin instead of Blueberry but all your versions looked great too!
Cut em in half and top with butter, jam and cream!
I love all flavors!
The Stay At Home Chef hi Rachel! How would I incorporate apples to this recipe?? This is my favorite type of scone😊
In the US, they make blueberry. Not a fan. I am a fan of plain or the apricot cream cheese recipe from King Arthur's baking company. Highly recommend.
Omg i used your recipe. Coconut milk instead of milk and no egg.
They came out super bouncy! Though 12 minutes wasnt long enough (though i have an old not very good oven) so i left it for qnother 3-4 mins.
They are super duper soft and taste soooooo good.
Thank you so much!
I tried the blueberry scones with a touch of lemon zest in my glazing instead of vanilla and it was amazing. Thanks for your no fail recipe
Happy you gave them a try (:
My husband loves this recipe. I have made 3 batches each time and brings it to work 3x now. Thank you for this recipe
Thank you for this recipe! I want to try making a version with apples and raisins. Or just apple scones without any raisins. 🍎
Best scones recipe I have watched + Your way of cooking and clearing things out is super good.. Thanks from Egypt 😻

I made this scones without the egg and they were delicious, now i gotta try with the egg, thank you so much for the recipe. It is Fantastic!
Hi. Do you know if it is with prepared or unprepared flour?
Thanks for this Americanized version! I will make them "British-style" with currants, and cut them out in a circle. But great to have the proportions for the ingredients in cups, etc, as that is what I am used to. Now, I have to look up a recipe for clotted cream...
Chef John has a good clotted cream recipe.
Wooow, my favorite is blueberries ones and chocolate ones, of course😍🍫
I use a mandoline instead of a grater for the butter, for two reasons: it's easier to clean, and the slices of butter mimic the traditional layers better than grated, making my scones flakier. Thank you for your wonderful recipes.
I tried this tonight and the results were super crumbly, soft, and light in the middle. It was absolutely delicious and my family loved it too.
Yummy! I can't wait to try these! I love recipes that are versatile and you can add what you have on hand. My fave is cran orange.. thanks for adding that recipe!😋

Agree, 1C of Heavy Cream is way too much. It was all floppy. So I added 1/2C more FLOUR and that was still too soft.
The best scones recipe I have ever made . So easy and quick. Thanks for sharing 👍
Hi from the UK, to make our traditional scone you do not use egg and the liquid is milk xx
There are lots of regional variations. The traditional scone is from Scotland and is made from barley flour and oats.
I love scones. Thank you for sharing this recipe with us.
This is the best scones I have ever made. Thank you for the detailed steps and clear instructions
I made these with blueberries and zest of lemon. They are wonderful!
I made these blueberry scones. My first time at scones. Easy and delicious. Thank you.

Oh my god. These are so flipping good I can’t stop making them!! Everyone thinks I’m a master baker! I make the chocolate but I also add 1/2 cup oatmeal and 1/2 cup chopped pecans.

Hope they are good. lol they were sure easy
That is awesome!
Lovely
Thank you so much for showing how to make those. I'll try to make some. They look very delicious. Like to try some with coffee.
White chocolate and raspberry are my favorite scones
Love your receipes and the way you explain. Please share cobblers receipe.🙏
OMG ...😯 I made them 👍 cranberry/ 🍊... 😱😱😱😱
I died and went to paradise 😋🥰👍 THANK-YOU for the easy, clear and quick recipe. 👍👍👍👍👍
I really like that you used a cheese grater. I'll try next time with my scone recipe.
me too .... I got another tip elsewhere to get your hands in there and flatten the butter into the dough for more flakiness .... used both for my blueberry lemon batch ..nom nom
My favorite scones are currant/pecan, without icing drizzle. Plump up the currants in some hot water or brandy first!
Those do sound good!
So delicious! Great baking options for an upcoming lazy weekend.
Lazy weekends are the best!
Excellent recipe!!! Scones turned out light and fluffy. Easy to follow instruction. Thank you for your tips!
I do a fresh strawberry scone. Add 1 cup of chopped strawberries. Also, instead of glaze you sprinkle course sugar on the scones before you bake.

Yummy I will probably add chocolate chips too .
Made the cinnamon scones this morning! Turned out delicious! And so simple!!

Ooooh that sounds good! Hope you like these ones as well (:

Poppy Seeds & Almonds sounds really good, too! Thanks for that hint!
@@winonajohnston2539 no problem! They are VERY good! Enjoy
This is a great recipe, my husband loves these scones .
If I want t make apricot scones, my favorite, should I use dried apricots? I love scones! Thank you!

My biggest was my Pumpkin cream cheese
My recipe calls for buttermilk I like the option of choice have either that needs used up I can give this a try.
Cheese scones with a small punch of cayenne are also incredible :)
Ooooh that sounds like a great idea!
@@Thestayathomechef I posted an easy recipe on my channel :) 😉
