Join 92-year-old CWA member Muriel Halsted through a short but sweet tour of her classic scone recipe. The CWA decided to bring their scones into the virtual world after the cancellation of the Sydney Royal Easter Show last month.
The group often sells as many as 50,000 scones, tea and coffee products created by its members at the show each year, but has now opted to selling PDF recipes following a $5 donation for a plate of virtual scones.

@@neilb6235 We are loosing because of people don't have in their hearts, love for their country heritage, they don't maintain it. Instead they introduce 'rubbish'' that is pollutant to our society such as name of other countries, eg. cookie. it was never in Australia is not our heritage from Britain Biscuit. the only way to stop it is to always complain ,. voice it , we don't accept anything of another country that is pollution and change our tradition. Is about not keeping quite otherwise they will win, and continue. Until is overpowered our tradition. I always complain to Coles , school fete etc. and pass the word around . Is disgusting of these people complying it such Coles, Woolworths etc.

I’m an electrician. I have done work for my local cwa for many years. The ladies in that group are just amazing. Sweet, cheeky and just pain ol gems! Plus they always send me home with all sorts of treats. Absolute sweethearts
Muriel, your lovely hands remind me of my dear Mum's hands. These are the hands that have soothed countless babies, known hard work and created endless meals all for the love of her family. She passed away in 2018 aged 93.

I'm English, and I've made scones the traditional way all my life, but this is just fantastic. Lemonade and cream are on the shopping list for this afternoon! Thank you, Muriel.

Gill Bullen it looks like a bottle of Schwepps lemonade. Probably any carbonated lemon soda, such as Sprite, could be used

@@XjtBA I was wondering about this and looked it up, I think the acid in the lemonade reacts with baking powder/soda in the self rising flour. Carbonation not necessary.

actually it's the carbonation..i use this recipe to make cheese and chives scones and i use a bottle of Schweppes soda water instead and it's perfect! @@youtubeaccount931
Linda, that brings tears 😭, same with my darling mother’s hands, the work they did in 90 years I can only imagine. I miss her so much 😢
Nothing was better than your Nan's baked dinner's in the 70s and 80s with gravy made with the drippings and home made scones with jam and clotted cream for dessert.
Don't mess with CWA recipes... tried and time tested and they are simply the best.

Wait so this is the legitimate CWA scone recipe? They've always kept it very tightly under wraps. I assumed it was a more traditional scone recipe, crumble the butter through kind.
Truly beautiful Muriel. Thank you for passing on your wonderful knowledge ❤
Muriel, you have bought back very beautiful memories of heading over to my now passed 90 + yr old grandmother's place & partaking in her beautiful, tasty & often simplified baking. We miss her as she's been gone since 2007. But her warmth, generosity & skill at making beautiful foods hasn't been forgotten. Thankyou Muriel for your vibrant & happy reminder.
The Lord bless you darling. How can people mark 'dislike' ? She should be respected for her seniority and experience. Well, in Asia we respect the elders and seniors, so, it makes my blood boil when I see we finding s fault, apologise for being too blunt, I am only being truthful. Thank you dear grand..

Thank you Muriel for sharing this simple and perfect recipe. Our kids woke up early and made it exactly like you using the knife and also using fingers with the milk brushing. They came out perfect just in time for Mother's Day Breakfast. God bless you.
Such an easy simple recipe for scones, made with love that makes a lifetime of memories.
All my life I have made scones and they end up in the bin, but this recipe, I CONQUERED. I am so grateful to you for making my scones perfect and yummy. Your tutorial was easy and simple.

Hello Elaine. Self-raising flour is simply flour with baking powder already mixed in.
Who could possibly give this lady a thumbs down. We need more videos like this to teach us good old fashioned ways of cooking. Too easy. Thank you Muriel.

Adorable! Thank you so much for sharing. 🥰
Lovely. Thank you so much. I have wanted to learn to make scones for years. Yours look delicious.
They look exactly like the scones my late wonderful mother used to make. She had an Australian Country Women's Cookbook. Everyone always praised her scones.
They look absolutely delicious Muriel, I'll definitely be making them today! Thank you for your recipe! 💞

Damn. I've been a grandad for years and watching this reminded me of my Granny making scones all those decades ago. Now I'm all teary remembering my Granny.
Thankyou Muriel and our ABC!

She uses self rising flour which includes baking powder in it. The lemonade also includes sugar in it.
Thank you very much Muriel and the film crew and producers. I went out after watching this video to the local woolies and bought the ingredients and made scones and jam and cream with strawberries on it and shared it with my brother and mother. Yum! May thanks xoxox
Murial you are an absolute ⭐️ Thank you so much for doing this I bought my cwa cookbook many years ago from Syd Royal but the rubbing in of butter has slowed my scone production!! Thank you for giving us permission to use the easier way!! Also I’ve never made scones by cutting them in little squares, I usually use a cutter Look forward to using that new trick next time too 😍😍😍
Bless you Murial, my 15 year old tried making scones today, they were flatter than biscuits lol! ...... Ummm I said look up CWA , I have saved your clip to show my daughter tommorrow. Thanks !!! CWA will live on!
Just made them this morning- genius recipe. Thanks Muriel

😀 In South Africa our version uses a similar technique except that it requires cake wheat flour, sugar,baking powder and a pinch of salt. We then cut a generous amount of butter into the dry ingredients and full cream amasi ( a type of cultured milk) to tie the dough together.
