Scones Success

When the grandkids come to town, they make this request: "Grams, will you make scones for breakfast? They’re the best!" I say, "Sure, come on over and be my guest" It’s the only food I make which passes the ‘kid’s’ test.

I make few things the grand children will eat. Scones! Every time they come town, they ask me to make scones. A good deal of what I make ends up in the trash, except these golden brown puffs. Scones Makes 10-12 1 cup warm water 1 Tablespoon Sugar 1 Teaspoon salt 1 Tablespoon oil Mix and add ½ Tbl Yeast Stir in 3 cups flour, One cup at time. You will have to hand mix in the last cup.
