As for liquid in this recipe. My friend had tried with milk, yogurt, whipping cream, and she said the best result is use Buttermilk !!
If you have leftover scones till next day, best to toast it for a while, it will taste like freshly bake !

Sonia, Tq for sharing the recipe.... looks good :) me too craving and drooling now... Bad time to look at it as it is sleeping time now :p
ReplyDeleteHi Sonia, thank you for your sharing~ May i know what is buttermilk? where can get it?
ReplyDeleteHie Sonia, do you think can freeze and keep the dough in freezer for future bake? Or freeze the baked scones and re-heat later? Does these two method will alteres the taste and texture of the scones compares to the freshly make and bake??
ReplyDeleteHave a good day!

Hi pei wen, buttermilk is the liquid left behind after churning butter out of cream. You can get it at any major supermarket, usually at butter and cream cold storage section.
ReplyDeleteHi Maedecx, better to freeze the baked scones , defrost then toast it and it will taste like freshly made. If you do not planning to store it longer, actually you can just store in the fridge, take out and toast it before enjoy.
Hi Sonia,
ReplyDeleteThe raisin is require to soak in the water for 10 min. Shall we use hot water or room temperature water will do

Hi Sonia, i couldn't find buttermilk here. Can i use fresh milk instead? Thanks a lot
ReplyDeleteChristine, just room temp water will do.
ReplyDeleteIsabella, you can use plain yogurt instead.
Hi Sonia, I tried it with plain yogurt , I need to use 2 cups to get it sticky, but I find that it doesn't rISE very high, do I need to increase the baking powder??
ReplyDeleteI have always loved scones. The first time I ate them was at Cameron Highland, and I found them delicious. They were plain scones, and I remember thinking that they would be good with this or that ingredient added.
ReplyDeleteHi I don't have brown sugar. Can I substitute with raw sugar?
