i installed a TV in my kitchen... just to watch YOU. i love your style,,, Your past teaching skills are perfect. And Your smile is magnetic & bright. Thank you. My grandchildren love the cakes Grandma Pat makes.
That's how I make mine! I buy an extra bag or two of cranberries at holiday time and toss them in the freezer to use year-round. You can mix them in frozen and bake right away, they thaw and burst during baking.
My Nannan made the best scones, she would call them halfa scones. 300 S.R. Flour, 150 Sugar, 75 Butter, 2 med Eggs, splash of milk if needed. Absolutely gorgeous 😋😋😋
John, I have immense respect that you acknowledged the international versions of the scone. Being Australian, the UK style is obviously what we refer to when we think of scones, but these (US style) look absolutely delicious, too! Great work.
I used this recipe and added chocolate chips. They were ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!!! the best scones recipe ever !!!!! ♡♡♡ my boyfriend and I devoured them !!!
I like to freeze/grate/freeze my butter and measure/mix/freeze my dry ingredients as well. Starting with everything as cold as possible helps me get better lamination and minimizes butter leakage 😊
When you say “ahmazing” you have me hooked. In Canada it’s generally called whipping cream as it’s the 33%. When I chop up dried fruit, which always seem sticky, I spray a little cooking spray on my knife. 🇨🇦🇨🇦
I'm irish and we say double cream , and our Irish kerry gold butter has salt so I don't add salt , love your channel , ive made a lot of your recipes, made your mushroom risotto today and it was delicious
I love scones, they are so easy to make .I always add an egg, use yogurt instead of cream, cut in triangles and I like chopped glace cherries and mixed peel in my scones. I eat 2 with cheese and an apple for tea. They freeze well so they are always fresh and don't need butter. Great recipe thanks John
@@samhugh4965 I actually use fat free greek style natural yogurt and along with the egg I put in enough to make the mixture plenty wet enough - scones are never dry
I am from Montreal,Quebec and I discovered your channel on Facebook. I just tried theses scones and they are delicious! I love the way you teach … it’s easy and I learn a lot .. the thing I love, is that the results always look great !i am hooked! I am mostly French but the way you explain, it’s so clear! Thank you !
In cooking class here in South Africa we were taught to make both types os scones. The ones that John calls American scones we were told was breakfast scones. The British ones are tea scones.
I’m from the U.K and I’ve always known that America has a different style of scone to us but I’ve never known quite what the difference is. Thank you for explaining the differences so clearly. I love your style of teaching and ( of course ) the great bonus of metric measurements. I look forward to making these scones for breakfast on Sunday.
Your scones are truly the BEST! I have tried recipes for years without being satisfied. I discovered your scone video a year ago, choc chip, blueberry lemon, pumpkin…all of them turned out perfectly and were exactly what I had dreamed of!! Thank you!!
Scottish granny here. I make “scawns” in a similar way in that I grate my chilled butter before rubbing it in, pat the dough into a round and cut it into triangles which my Yorkshire granny called a fadge (an Irish term I believe). My recipe is a little bit different.
Me, too. I have ever seen scones in triangles that are cut first except or here in America.. The wedge shape comes from making a large round traditionally. My family is English.
Lemonade Scones 3.5 Cups of Self-Raising Flour 1 Cup of Thickened Cream 1 Cup of Lemonade As an Aussie, these will make the lightest, fluffiest, most delicious scones you'll ever eat.
In the Hebrides of Scotland 🏴 scones are made ( in minutes) in this triangular shape. My MIL was from the Isle of Lewis and she used to knock these up and serve them as savoury snacks with cheese and crispy bacon, obviously she omitted the sugar and used salt and pepper and a pinch of mustard powder, if sweet she added sugar and sultanas . They were delicious ❤
Baked these wonderful scrumptious scones yesterday. I made some plain fruit ones. I had a lot of visitors yesterday, they went down a treat. I have to say they were the best scones I ever made, just tasted delicious. Thank you so much for this recipe, I will always use it, it's a winner. Mary. Ireland 🇮🇪
Decades ago I spent two weeks working in Dublin - and boy were they delicious. 🤤🤤I had them every morning while I was there, and went through withdrawals when back in Germany, were we don’t have them. Update: watched several videos and different recipes, but followed this one - and we LOVE it!! So delicious!
I like to grate the butter on the large holes of a grater, directly into the flour mixture. I toss the shards with the flour as I go along so it doesn't clump. Much faster than the pastry cutter method! Cheese and green herbs are our family's favorite, but personally I like fresh cranberry and orange. I love your recipes and videos!
I love scones, American ones, but was somewhat intimidated about making them. My friend made some last week, gave me one and shared the recipe. I decided to try. They were good, but I knew there were better scones out there. After searching the internet, I found your scone video and recipe. I made a batch today and they were killer! Thank you so much. My husband absolutely ❤❤❤ them too. I look forward to making more of your recipes and purchasing a cookbook or two! Onward to British scones. My HS pen pal from England has promised to share her recipe. I think I’ll try yours first.
I made these this morning for my neighbor and her English friend who was there overnight. She loved them and said they were like the scones she was used to getting as a child. I added dried cranberries because I didn’t have raisins. She said she liked cranberries better than raisins. I lucked out!
Wow I made these and they are wonderful! Soft on the inside, a little crunchy on the outside, perfect amount of sugar. And they rose nice and tall. Love love love the recipe, thank you so much!
Love the recommendation of putting fresh herbs in these scones as well, for a bit of a savory/fragrant experience rather than a sweet one :) love your vids John!
Just made them, absolutely delicious! Didn’t have cream, used a mix of «old» greek yoghurt and lowfat sourcream.. walnuts, mango and a little bit of dark chocolate inside them.. Yum! 🥰 love your channel! Eli from Norway 🇳🇴
Thank you John i shall try making these, years ago when i was first married which was a hundred years ago i used to walk over to our local bakery and pick up scones they had i loved them so much and when we moved i stopped eating them, occasionally over the years i have picked them up as a treat, but i have decided i will make my own, i have the time now that i am retired.
Speaking of clotted cream, Chef John has an improv recipe for it (basically you just bake heavy cream at 200° or lower for about 12 hours), and while it makes some really good cream it's 'not quite' Devonshire cream which uses a whole industrial process. I'd be really interested in a home recipe for making authentic Devonshire cream. Clotted cream or mascarpone and raspberry preserves sounds like the perfect scone topping to me. 😋
Those scones look Absolutely Positively Amazing and Wonderful!!! I have to tell you that you are Absolutely Amazing too!!! You have taught me so dang much!!! You always explain everything and why you do it!!! I have always thought of myself as a good cook!!! Thanks to you I know I'm a Great cook and baker!!! THANK YOU!!! God Bless Us All!!!
I made them and actually forgot mix ins and it was delish! They did taste like a hug for sure! Thank you John for this! I love your instructions you make it easy for amateur baker like myself.
These look great. Scones are fun since you can personalize the mix-ins to whatever you fancy. For the sugar on top, i use turbanado sugar -- its big and crunchy and perfect.
I make an orange scented scone with walnuts and golden raisins or dried cherries. I use buttermilk instead of heavy cream. I keep the butter, dry ingredients and mixing bowl in the freezer until I'm ready to put everything together. The zest of a whole orange really brings a wonderful aroma to my scones. Lemon zest works too
Instead of heavy cream I've made these with whole milk ricotta cheese or sour cream. Both turned out well, with the ricotta I added some lemon zest and a bit of lemon juice.
Maybe I’m the only one, but I absolutely love a dry scone with my coffee. The drier the scone is, the more coffee it will absorb when you take a sip. I usually never eat a scone without coffee, but I may need to try this one.
Love all the things you make and have made many of them. But I scrape out my cups and bowls really well. And I clean my eggs. I take a spork and remove the white globule ends and the connecting line on the yolks. But otherwise I’m right there with you. Thanks. Merry Christmas 🎄
Oh my goodness, I just made these this morning. They are so good John, I made mine with dried cranberries and chopped pecans. This is now going to be my go to recipe. Thanks for sharing.
John!!! Gracias por la receta! Quedaron deliciosos! Thank you 🙏🏼 for your recipe. The whole family enjoyed them. They are asking for more already 😊. My daughter was able to follow along with me and she is so proud of herself. God bless you 🧑🏻🍳
Love your recipe and enjoy your video as you get to the presentation without blabbing ;), 5 stars to the taste, the frozen scones fluff up even better. Delicious I have used dates and dried apricots, dried cranberries and fresh blueberries and they are the best. Thank you.
I make pumpkin scones, but when i just told my hubby you're making apricot, he was like oh wow! I looove apricot! 😂 so i will make these next! Thanks, John
I had my first scone as an adult although my grandmother baked American biscuits every morning. I fell in love with scones while staying at a bed and breakfast where fresh scones (both savory and sweet), fresh fruit and French pressed coffee arrived at my door every morning-from Thomas Keller’s bakery in Napa. My favorite was sharp cheddar and bacon. Nowadays, Scones are a regular offering at my table. Thank you for your demonstration.
I live in SW France and I have melanoma. I go to Bordeaux for my immunotherapy treatments and a lovely taxi lady takes me. She LOVES scones so I will have to make these for her on my next treatment day.
In Canada, at least in Kemptville, heavy cream is not sold the only thing is whipping cream. BTW i use your recipes only for my baked goods that I sell at the farmers market. Nothing but good things said about these recipes! Thanks!
Made these this morning. They truly are moist and delicious. Hello Fall, used cranberries and pecans, and sanded the top with fall spices and coarse sugar from my pumpkin spice cookies. Perfect touch!
I've tried your recepy. Reduced the salt to only one teaspoon as I thought: Woopsi, that's too much and why? And substituted the cream for sourcream as I did not have the other one in my fridge. Very nice, very moist scones indeed. They also smelt delicious. Worth remaking again.
I love to bake but always look up videos on you tube if I get stuck. I love coming across your vidoes to learn all the tips and tricks to get best results!
“This tastes like a hug” - I believe you! Thank you for the fabulous cooking video. I’m going to use your techniques when I bake my next batch of scones. I really enjoyed listening to you! Very relaxing and instructional. Thank you very much from Barrie, Ontario😘
The only scone I had ever had before made my own (very similar to this) was from said coffee chain that shall remain nameless and yes, it was tough and dry. I’m glad I was able to really experience a real scone. How many people have had a similar experience. Join us in the world of real scones!!
Best scones ever. Did take more time because my butter was really cold but they are moist and delicious with dried cherries inside. Thanks for the excellent video tutorial
John, I made your scones recipe with dried apricots and cranberries, grated the cold butter and they turned out so good. This will be my go to recipe as it's so easy to put together. Thank your😊
I used brown sugar instead of white sugar and egg nog instead of heavy cream then brushed it with egg wash then brown sugar then sprinkled toasted almond slivers (which I made myself by boiling the almonds for sixty seconds then removed the skins and sliced the almonds) they came out very moist but not too wet. Family loves them. ( oh and put a shot of Christian Brothers brandy in the egg nog.)
I just bought your cookbook and, subsequently, found your channel! I am binging your videos. I just have to say how amazing the cookbook is, it's everything I love about cookbooks but also so much more. You have the sweetest family. I think your personality is very engaging yet calming, your videos give me feel-good vibes, and your food is to die for. You are a wonderful mentor, thank you for keeping your recipes approachable, sophisticated, and unique. I am so excited to make my way through the Pretty Kitchen cookbook. P.S. Your kitchen is my dream 😍!
Our local Jewel supermarket used to have these, and they were simply delicious. Sweet, crumbly, stuffed with blueberries, cranberries or lemon zest, and glazed with a simply confectioner's sugar icing. I say "used to", because they don't carry them anymore. Sad panda, here. 😔
Hey ThankS for the recipe.. I made it on Wednesday and now I'm making again on Sunday. I also did your lemon curd redipe and I am making your hot crossed buns recipe this week for Easter.. my late grandma Jennie's favorite.
I made your scone recipe today, with fresh blueberries as the mix-in. I wish my dough came together on the counter as easily as yours does in the video. I know that you're not supposed to over handle the dough, but it was the only way it would all come together, along with a little more cream. In the end, the scones were light and delicious. Thank you!
i installed a TV in my kitchen... just to watch YOU. i love your style,,, Your past teaching skills are perfect. And Your smile is magnetic & bright. Thank you. My grandchildren love the cakes Grandma Pat makes.
Holy crap - I just made these with fresh cranberries and orange zest. These are the best scones I've ever had in my life! THANK YOU for this recipe!

You are adorable to mention your Nana!
Probably 100 times better than his recipe. I've used his recipes many times and this one is a massive fail. Stick with nana
John, I have immense respect that you acknowledged the international versions of the scone. Being Australian, the UK style is obviously what we refer to when we think of scones, but these (US style) look absolutely delicious, too! Great work.
Looks perfect will try to make them. Will be my first. Thanks so very much.
I used this recipe and added chocolate chips. They were ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!!! the best scones recipe ever !!!!! ♡♡♡ my boyfriend and I devoured them !!!
I've grated frozen butter then put it back in the freezer until I needed it
Brilliant idea 👍
Cool !
I always grate frozen butter for scones and soda bread.
Yes! I've started doing that for pie dough and it's so much easier
Yummy 🤤
I like to freeze/grate/freeze my butter and measure/mix/freeze my dry ingredients as well. Starting with everything as cold as possible helps me get better lamination and minimizes butter leakage 😊
I agree John, it's necessary to have the butter in chunks = steam = fluffy. You make things look so easy. Thanks for everything ❤

Do you need to add a little water or milk to the yogurt?
@@samhugh4965 I actually use fat free greek style natural yogurt and along with the egg I put in enough to make the mixture plenty wet enough - scones are never dry
The greek yogurt makes it like you are adding buttermilk which we use here in Ireland

The bestest BESTEST scone recipe ever. Thank you John 🎉❤
Amazing Scones! I have been using this recipe to make them but i add (cooked bacon,cheese,onion) and this recipe never disappoints!
I made them and actually forgot mix ins and it was delish! They did taste like a hug for sure!
Thank you John for this! I love your instructions you make it easy for amateur baker like myself.
The key with frozen butter into flour is a food processor. It’s the most perfect thing. Pie crust this way is a winner
Your scone receipe is great! I made it this morning, it's fluffy, not too dry, you can eat directly or eat with butter and jam. yum~~ Thank you!
I am born and raised in the deep south, and I would choose a homemade scone over a biscuit every time. Shhhhh, it's our secret!😉
I made this scone with blueberry, omg everybody loved it. Thank you John, your peanut butter cookie is amazing too ❤
The cookbook is great! Thanks John!

Crème épaisse i believe is the closest to heavy cream in France.

The best scone I’ve ever tasted! ❤
However, I had to bake 20 minutes for them to be a golden light brown!
Made them with a mix of raspberries and cranberries, delightful 😊
Best scones that I have ever made. Your recipe is absolutely perfect. Thank you.
“This tastes like a hug” - I believe you! Thank you for the fabulous cooking video. I’m going to use your techniques when I bake my next batch of scones. I really enjoyed listening to you! Very relaxing and instructional. Thank you very much from Barrie, Ontario😘
This recipe is amazing!!! and so is your book. The Candied Kumquat flan is absolutely delicious.
I love your accent! It’s a high class American accent, so nice to listen to you…
a big THANK YOU❣️😊 i can do this. i’m buying the ingredients this weekend!
THEY DO LOOK VERY LUSCIOUS AND FLAKY AND PERFECT THANKS
The only scone I had ever had before made my own (very similar to this) was from said coffee chain that shall remain nameless and yes, it was tough and dry. I’m glad I was able to really experience a real scone. How many people have had a similar experience. Join us in the world of real scones!!
Looks like a good recipe. Thank you for sharing.
I use your blueberry scone recipe alllll the time I was obsessed with it and they come out perfect every time 🤩💙
John, your scones recepies are perfect each time!! Thank you for your wonderful recepies.
Best scones ever. Did take more time because my butter was really cold but they are moist and delicious with dried cherries inside. Thanks for the excellent video tutorial
My favorite American style scones are cranberry orange flavour, with some orange zest inside! To die for!
,
Thank you, you're amazing and so as your Scones recipe.
I freeze my butter, and shred.
When baked I topped or swirled lemon glaze. Yummo!
John, you never disappoint. I would definitely try this recipe.
John, I made your scones recipe with dried apricots and cranberries, grated the cold butter and they turned out so good. This will be my go to recipe as it's so easy to put together. Thank your😊
Trying this today.You are my go to guy for all my baking now …I made the sugar cookies they were perfect..
John I love your cooking!
I put “best scone recipe” in the search and you among many came up. My first thought was “This guy. I trust this guy.”
I usually don't trust Americans with cooking and baking, but I trust him. 😂
I used brown sugar instead of white sugar and egg nog instead of heavy cream then brushed it with egg wash then brown sugar then sprinkled toasted almond slivers (which I made myself by boiling the almonds for sixty seconds then removed the skins and sliced the almonds) they came out very moist but not too wet.
