Scones with a traditional taste and the ease of a drop scone? Once you try them, you’ll be making them every weekend!

Ingredients

    Yield: about ten 3½- to 4-inch scones

    • 2⅓ cups (327 g) Pamela's Baking & Pancake Mix
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • ⅓ cup + 1 tablespoon sugar
    • ¼ cup (4 tablespoons) butter, cut in small dice, chilled
    • ⅓ cup milk
    • 1 egg, large, beaten
    • ½ cup currants
    • 1 tablespoon orange zest (optional)

Directions

    Preheat oven to 375°. Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.

    Whisk together Baking & Pancake Mix, baking powder, and sugar. Using two knives or pastry blender, cut butter into dry ingredients until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add milk, egg, currants, and orange zest, combining all together with a fork. Dough will be thick. Scoop or drop large, tall dollops (about ¼ cup each) of dough onto baking sheet. Bake for 13 to 18 minutes until just starting to brown on the edges.

    VARIATION: Replace currants with ½ cup dried cranberries, and be sure to include the orange zest.

Substituted cranberries, lemon zest, Monk Fruit as sweetener, and almond milk and bakes them in a scone pan from Crate & Barrel. They were beautifully fluffy and light. Added a lemon glaze...they were absolutely fabulous!

If dough remains flattened , I would shape into triangles.
I Love this mix. I used it to make chocolate chip cookies and maple cornbread!!!

I made these as directed except for the currants. I used chopped apricots instead. They were absolutely delicious and a big hit at the tea party.

Easy and delicious!! This is my go-to scone recipe. I prefer them with less sugar and find that a scant 1/4 cup is plenty and still makes them sweet. Perfect fo
unch!

Whenever I make scones of any type, (Gluten-free or not) I chill the flour and put the raw cut scones in the freezer for 20 minutes before I bake them. I find this works very well in producing a delicate scone. All right ingredients need to be ice cold before when you begin.

I want to say that I Love Pamela's baking mix, but they are notorious for having too small amount of baking mix in their recipes.
I always add more baking mix, until its dryer, to the touch, like the texture of biscuit dough.
Also, I put mine in a big disc, freeze it for 10 minutes, then cut it into 8 triangles.

These turned out GREAT! I ended up not having all the ingredients so (during the COVID19 shelter-in-place) so... I filled my 1/3 cup measure with about 1/3 heavy cream and the rest water. I didn't have currants or orange zest but I put in about 1/3 cup pecans and 1/2 tsp lemon oil. At the end I smeared on some jam and they are delicious. I always end up mixing in the butter by hand (I can't seem to get it well mixed otherwise).
