Scon or scoan? That age old debate like which order to top them with. Jam or cream first? I'd go with saying scoans dahhling and I actually only like jam on mine, maybe just a tiny bit of cream. I think the order you top them with comes from if you're from Devon or Cornwall? Anyway, whatever your preferences I thought I'd blog a recipe for one of my favourite bakes today after going through some photos from last year. They're so easy, the kind of thing you can make, clear up from and dash to the village for jam and clotted cream all within an hour of finding out you have last minute guests arriving. Everybody loves fresh scones, so quintessentially English. Perfect for afternoon teas in the summer in the garden or just with your Grandma in the kitchen. This recipe is from the queen of baking herself, Mary Berry.
