I've been searching for scones like my Scottish granny used to make. These weren't even close. I followed the directions exactly, but thought these were heavy and not particularly good tasting. Sorry.

these were superb. Used skim milk and splenda brown sugar blend and just loved them.

The flavor in these scones is marvelous. I made a 1/2 recipe and to make them even more diabetic friendly I replaced 1/2 a cup of white flour with whole wheat. I used 1/8 cup of Splenda brown sugar and skim milk. They turned out wonderfully. I can't say that they were especially dense even with the whole wheat addition, in fact they rose very well. I added 1/2 a tsp of Penzey's Cake Spice just because I thought it would go very nicely with the brown sugar, it did! In short, throughly wonderful scones that would accept dried fruit and/or nuts very well if one wanted to add them. Thank you Auntie Mags for a keeper scone recipe.

Loved the rich, brown suger in these scones. I found these to be much more dense then my regular scones. Thanks so much for posting these, Auntie Mags !
