TRADITIONAL ENGLISH TEA TIME SCONES WITH JAM AND CREAM
Eat these hot, split & spread with fresh churned butter, fresh cream and homemade jam, preferably strawberry........not forgetting to lick your fingers afterwards - discreetly! These always made an appearance on my Mum and Grandmother's Afternoon Tea Table....it's simply expected my dear! You can also add dried fruit to these to make traditional fruit scones, such as sultanas, currants and raisins; I have added that option in the recipe. The traditional English Cream Tea is very popular in the South West of England, especially in Devon and Cornwall - there you will be offered a pot of tea with fluffy warm scones, butter, cream and strawberry jam. In Devon, you will be served double Devon cream and in Cornwall, you will be offered clotted cream - that's the main difference.

Steps:
- Sift together the flour, salt and baking powder into a bowl and add the sugar and butter.
- Rub in the butter until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
- Gradually mix in the egg and milk mixture to make a dough, saving any excess to glaze the tops of the scones. Add your fruit at this stage if using.
- Gently knead the dough on a lightly floured work surface until smooth.
- Roll out the dough to about 1/2" thick, then cut out 2" rounds with a plain or fluted cutter, kneading and re-rolling the dough until it is all used up.
- Arrange scones on baking sheets then brush tops with the milk and egg mixture.
- Bake in the oven at 230°C (450°F) mark 8 for 10 to 15 minutes, until well risen and lightly golden. Cool on a wire rack.
- Whip the fresh cream until stiff. Split the scones and fill with butter, jam and fresh cream.
CLASSIC TEA TIME CREAM SCONES
This lovely recipe for scones comes from the book "Simply Scones" by L. Weiner and B. Albright, which I got for my bday yesterday. They taste great as is or spread with jam or clotted cream or even with some cheese melted on top. This I discovered when accidentally putting the cheese on the wrong scones before baking two different kinds. :) Hahaha...

Steps:
- In a big bowl mix flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. If using vanilla bean add it now.
- Add the butter and rub it in using two knives, a pastry blender or your finger tips. When the mixture resembles coarse crumbs, stop.
- Add the beaten egg and enough cream to make a soft but not sticky dough.
- Turn out onto a lightly floured board and knead lightly (not more than 8 times).
- Pat down and cut out scones using a cookie cutter or a glass (I use a glass of 7.5 cm in diameter).
- Place on a paper-lined baking sheet and brush with some cream if you like.
- Bake in the pre-heated oven at 220°C/425°C for 10-15 minutes or until lightly browned.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- In a large bowl, sift together the dry ingredients.
- Gradually add enough of the cream to form a soft dough.
- Knead lightly on a floured board, handling the dough gently to retain the air needed for the scones to rise.
- Roll out to a 1/2- to 3/4-inch thickness.
- Cut into 2 inch rounds with a sharp knife or use a cookie cutter.
- Arrange on an ungreased baking sheet, leaving a 1/2 inch space around each one.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown.
CREAM TEA SCONES
Traditional at English Tea time - these are some of the simplest and best scones I have made. The recipe was originally from a 1987 Canadian Living Cookbook.

Steps:
- Mix together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
- Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a small bowl, combine eggs, egg yolk and cream - beat with a fork until well blended.
- Add the liquid mix all at once to the dry ingredients, stirring with a fork to make a soft, slightly sticky dough - add a little more cream if necessary.
- Press into a ball and knead gently on a floured surface about 10 times.
- Roll out dough to 1/2 inch thick and cut in to triangles or rounds.
- Place on an ungreased baking sheet and brush with egg white then sprinkle lightly with sugar.
- Bake in a pre-heated 425 degree oven for 12 - 15 minutes or until golden.
- Now the very best part. Serve them warm with butter, raspberry or strawberry jam and to be really traditional you may also add a dollop of Devonshire cream. Whipping cream is a good substitute.

CREAM TEA SCONES BY KING ARTHUR FLOUR
These scones couldn't be more basic - or more delicious. Simply stir together flour, sugar, salt, leavening, vanilla, and enough cream to make a cohesive dough. Pat into circles, cut into wedges, chill, bake - and enjoy ultra-tender, warm "cream tea" scones, perfect with butter and fresh preserves. I like to cut up fresh fruit and add to batter, YUM

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper (or not; it helps with cleanup, but isn't necessary to prevent sticking).
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- Sprinkle the vanilla over the dry ingredients, then drizzle in the cream, tossing and stirring gently all the while and adding just enough to make a cohesive dough. There shouldn't be any dry flour in the bottom of the bowl, but the dough shouldn't be particularly sticky, either.
- Lightly flour a clean work surface. Divide the dough in half, and gently pat each half into a 5 1/2" circle about 3/4" thick.
- Brush each circle with heavy cream, and sprinkle with coarse white sparkling sugar, if desired.
- Place the two circles of dough on the baking sheet, and cut each into 6 wedges. Pull the wedges apart a bit, leaving them in a circular pattern with about 1" space between each wedge.
- For best rising, place the pan of scones into the freezer for 15 minutes, while you preheat your oven to 425°F.
- Bake the chilled scones for 14 to 15 minutes, until they're starting to brown, and they're baked all the way through, without any wet dough in the center.
- Remove the scones from the oven. Serve warm, split and spread with a bit of sweet butter and jam or preserves.
- Store cooled scones airtight at room temperature for several days; freeze for longer storage. To refresh, microwave individual scones very briefly; or place scones on a baking sheet, tent with aluminum foil, and reheat in a 350°F oven for 10 to 15 minutes, until heated through.
CLASSIC CREAM SCONES
You're best off describing scones to a German by saying that they are like a cross between a Kuchen (cake), a Plaetzchen (cookie), and a Broetchen (roll), but are very unique and not really like anything else found in Germany. My German husband *loves* this recipe: Classic Cream Scones (from Simply Scones, by Leslie Weiner and Barbara Albright)

- In a small bowl, stir together the cream, egg, and vanilla.
- Add the cream mixture to the flour mixture and stir until combines.
- Stir in the currents/raisins (optional). With lightly floured hands, pat the dough into a 1/2-inch thickness on a lightly floured cutting board.
- Using a floured 2 1/2-inch-diameter round biscuit cutter or a glass, cut out rounds from the dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Gather the scraps together and repeat until all the dough is used.
- Lightly brush the tops of the scones with the egg mixture, if desired.
- Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until lightly browned.
