Dropped Scones Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Grease a cookie sheet.
• Mix flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.
• Cut in butter until fine crumbs; food processor is best.
• Place in large bowl; add cranberries and raisins.
• Beat milk and egg with a fork.
• Add milk and egg mixture to flour mixture; stir with fork until moistened.
• Drop by 12 heaping spoonfuls, 2 inches apart onto prepared baking sheet.
• Sprinkle with the 1 Tablespoon sugar.
• Bake 13 minutes or until golden.
• Cool on rack.

Steps:

• Sieve the flour into a bowl, and add the baking powder, sugar and ½ tsp of salt. Whisk the egg and milk together in a jug, then pour into the bowl and whisk for a few minutes until you make a smooth thick batter.
• Add a drizzle of oil to a hot plate or large frying pan, and spread using a piece of kitchen paper. Heat the pan over a medium heat, and once hot, drop 2 tbsp of the batter into the pan to make small pancakes. You will be able to make about 4-5 at a time.
• Cook the pancakes for 2-3 mins until the edges are set, and bubbles rise from the middle. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining batter, keeping the cooked ones warm in a low oven, if you like. Add another drizzle of oil to the pan when needed.
• Top the pancakes with a little butter and a drizzle of maple syrup, alongside some seasonal fruit, if you like.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450. Grease or spray a large cookie sheet.
• Stir together dry ingredients including the sugar. Cut butter into flour mixture. Add raisins (or whatever you use), stir to mix well.
• Beat egg in measuring cup. Add milk to make 1 cup. Stir into flour.
• Drop roughly tablespoon size scoops on cookie sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
• (You can knead 15-20 times and roll out and cut if you wish -- but I prefer the ease of the drop method.).
