I tried this recipe today and I can honestly say that these were the best scones I have ever had. I followed the recipe exactly to the letter and I think the trick was to put it them in a preheated oven. I also stored them in the fridge while the oven was preheating. They were absolutely delicious 😋. Well done to the chef! 🧑‍🍳

Thank you, Kevin will be pleased.

Don't halve the recipe, either make the dough and freeze half and use it later. Or make all the scones and freeze half after they have cooled down from baking. Scones freeze really well and let them thaw and then add your jam and cream. I make a batch and freeze the baked scones, then I always have some ready. Simply take out of the freezer in the morning and they're ready for afternoon tea.

You can cut them and freeze them raw, or bake them and freeze them that way. You can also just microwave the frozen ones for 40s then put in the toaster oven, if you don't plan your days such that you know in the morning that you'll want them in the afternoon.

Kevin, you won my admiration when you said, "Mary Berry says not to do that but that's nonsense." They look delicious!

A quick note for any Americans watching this: self-rising flour in the U.K. contains ONLY baking powder and flour. However, self-rising flower in the U.S. contains baking powder, flour and salt. If you are concerned about the additional salt throwing off your recipe, U.K.-style self-rising flower (it's actually where baking powder was invented, so it's really the original and every other type is a variation) can be replicated at home. All you have to do is add about 5% baking powder to your flour by weight. In this case, it would be 48g of baking powder and 952g of all-purpose flour. Do keep in mind that you will have to add the additional 15g of baking powder on top of the 48g used to replicate the self-rising flour, for a total of 63g. If you must use U.S. volume measurements, one cup of all-purpose flour is roughly 120g. This is assuming that you fluff the flour first, sprinkle onto your measuring cup until it is overfilled, and scrape the cup level with a straight edge. One level tsp. baking powder is roughly 4g. On a final note (if anyone actually reads this), scones freeze wonderfully. I make them up until the point that you cut and eggwash the scones, then freeze them in one layer on a baking tray until frozen solid. Afterward, wrap and store them in the freezer however you like. The scones can then be taken out individually, or in batches and baked directly from frozen--no need to thaw. Use the same temperature indicated (180c/356f) and maybe add another couple of minutes to total baking time...just keep an eye on them. I like to make a bunch for my mom at once so she always has a supply of fresh scones at hand to cheer her up--they're also lovely for unexpected company.

​@@insertclevernamehere2506 Thank you for your thoughts! While I agree that my answer is a bit lengthy, I stand by it. Measurements by mass will always give more consistent results in baking. Also, if you want it simplified, 1.5 tsp. per cup will get you closer to the original recipe.

I am looking forward to making these scones. I live in the US. Most recipes I find stress the importance of keeping the butter and milk very cold. Some even advise to refrigerate the scones for at least 20 minutes before baking. Your recipe looks much easier. I like your care free approach! Thank you for sharing your recipe.

As I am from North America (Canada) I found it so disappointing to read the comments from my American neighbour that unless you do the conversion from metric to OZ’s etc. She could not be bothered to do the conversion herself. The reality is metric measurement is by far the most common form of measurement and if this lady cannot be bothered to do the conversion than she doesn’t deserve the rewards. Time to get with the rest of the WORLD. Thank you for sharing your recipe .

Not adding flour at the rolling stage seemed so weird with all I've been watching lately (made a batch last Saturday night - midnight or so to be more precise). Then I've also made 2 others on Tuesday this week. This wetter dough mixture without adding flour seems really to work nicely here. They look more like dough for biscuits/cookies! I think it's the extra amount of butter used since this is 1/4 of the flour at 250 grammes, whereas I've heard use of 80 grammes a lot for 500 grammes of flour - so essentially at least 'round another 50% more butter overall/in the end!

I made these scones for the second time today. The first time round I had no butter so used margarine and they were way better than my modified Mrs Beaton's recipe. Today I had butter, what a difference it makes! I got ten out of the 500 gram mix but wished I'd used a smaller cutter to give me more scones. Very nice texture with no bicarb/baking powder dry mouth. Unless something better comes along this is my recipe of choice. I also baked teacakes today following John Kirkwood's recipe and they are also very good , then baked a cheese bacon flan/quiche for dinner. A scone with strawberry jam for dessert fantastic!!!

I loved watching Kevin making his scones. Very old school and made just how we made them at school approx. 60 years ago!

I would follow it but when these English people make scones or any other recipe, they need to take in consideration of Americans who don't use grams or kilos, they need to tell us what it converts to. If I have to look up all the measurements, I just discard the receipt no matter how good, I won't make it.

Made these recently and they were perfect. My whole family loved them. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

Excellent teaching by an obvious expert! Thank you. So pleasurable to watch. :)

Well done I finaly made scones because of your recipe and I'm 70 thank you u.k

Made these today even though I failed “0” level cookery & they turned out great. What a good teacher

Made this today and they tasted so amazing. I've always used plain flour to make scones and it never came out like this. Thank you so much for this recipe. Scones were so fluffy and melted like clouds inside my mouth. They were so soft and tasty. I did reduce the sugar a bit and they were still so yummy and sweet taste on point. Will keep this recipe forever.

Superb job. I'm a many times failed scone maker, as I really enjoy a good scone and mine don't come up to scratch. I'm certainly going to give these a try as the best scones I have tried were in Dartmouth! In defence of dear Mary B, she warns not to egg wash the SIDES of the scone but just the top as you have done. She explained it prevents the scones from rising properly as the egg "seizes" the dough in the oven. All hail to the British scone!

I’ve tried countless recipes and never got mine as I wanted them…….this time I’ve struck gold! I think the milk to egg ratio is the secret I’ve been missing. Business must be booming selling those little beauties, thanks for sharing👍🏻

Set oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Ingredients (and some of the instructions because this is helping me in the kitchen): 1000 g self raising flour 250 g butter 1/2 tsp salt 15 g baking powder Work these together for about 10 minutes with your fingers into a consistency like soft fine bread crumbs. 175 g sultanas (not for me thanks, I hate these) 375 ml full fat milk 175 g caster sugar 1 egg 1 cap vanilla extract Mix this in the jug. Pour almost all this into the first bowl. Don't over work them and don't let them get too wet. Sticky but not sticking to your hands. This gets you to about 05:00 in the video.

I am from New Hampshire, USA. I just made this recipe and it is EXCELLENT! For someone who would love to experience an English afternoon tea, this is such a treat. I really appreciate the recipe and tutorial on making them. Thank you!

Wonderful!

Brilliant! You’re delightful.

You are my last hope! I have spent much of lockdown trying to make scones that rise well and have a clear split in them half way so they can be pulled apart. Many of the recipes say use cold butter whereas you have said the opposite. Also you didnt need to flour the work surface which is interesting. I have probably baked about 150 scones during lockdown which have tasted good but few of which have come out well risen and with that clear mid-line. So I am going to follow this recipe exactly (the egg could be the difference) later today when I have visitors for afternoon tea! Thanks for sharing this....so good of you.

And they were fantastic. Well risen and easy to pull apart. Thanks!

Thank you for the video will make the scones tomorrow. I've never use vanilla in my dough but I'm sure they'll be delish and I have my own raspberry and strawberry jam in my fridge, just have to whip up some cream! I'm Scottish and I love my scones! Thanks again and God bless.

2 years, very late reply here.... 😀 I'm also Scottish, for married and now over in the states since I was 19. Wanted to make some traditional scones from back home remembered His recipe, now can't wait to bake up a batch today along with John kirkwoods recipe for Chantilly cream and strawberry jam recipe. Darn, both recipes for scones look great.

Hi from Larnaca, Cyprus...Followed & tried your scones..The best ever, Shop bought can’t touch the light & delicious scones..will be a favourite for sure..Thanks for sharing.

I make these all the time and everyone absolutely loves them, one day I’ll take a trip to this shop and try the real deal! Thanks for sharing this recipe.

The first time I ever had a "Devonshire Tea" was in Melbourne in 1987, introduced to the treat by my cousin Gabriella. Fantastic! We don't have clotted cream as a regular item you'd buy at a grocery store here in Canada, so it was all new to me back then. Your scones look HUGE but delicious, I will definitely have to try your recipe. Thanks for your video! ~Diana from Toronto

Diana from Toronto...You can find Clotted Cream at any Loblaws stores in the Toronto area. It's in a small bottle in the milk dept.
