This is one of my mum’s favourite tea-time treats. What i like about these is that you can add almost anything to flavour it, whether it be something sweet like chocolate, healthy like oats or savoury like cheese. It really can go with your mood.

Here is a basic scone recipe. I used a small cutter just for some fun. Size is really up to you . If you do not have cutters available, you can use the shape of like a jam jar, or even cutting the dough into squares. Have fun with this one . Happy baking!
