Tea Time Scones

In honor of the Royal Wedding tomorrow
 I'm making scones.
 We can enjoy these with tea while we watch a bit of the festivities.

This is my favorite scone recipe because it's so easy.

They take just a few minutes to prepare.

 Combine the dry ingredients.

 Stir in the cream.

 Knead a bit.

 Flatten into a circle and cut out into circles or wedges.

 Place on a foil lined baking sheet. Brush with melted butter and a sprinkle of sugar.

 Bake until golden at 425 for 15-20  minutes.

 Serve warm with raspberry jam and butter, whipped cream or clotted cream.
Now all you need is   A Perfect Pot Of Tea.

CHEERIO!
