Episode 11: The Scones Fiasco plus JAM
Ash’s Scones Recipe:
5 cups of SRF
1.5 cups cream
1.5 cups lemonade.
I baked them at 220 degrees C for about 10 minutes.
Lots of advice on touching the dough for the minimal time possible. Don’t overwork it.
Jam from Just Add Moonshine – justaddmoonshine.wordpress.com – check out the tasting notes
Mothers group spread – scones, Tim Tam bites, biscotti
Jam and cream!
