Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Nice baking from so many people!

Interesting to hear the variation in scone recipes - it had never occurred to me to add egg. I make really basic scones, that you could probably argue aren't real scones as they don't have lashing of butter or milk!

240g plain flour
4 tsp baking powder
60ml canola oil
water to make it the right consistency (about 175ml I think)
chopped apple and walnut

The ones pictured on this thread look much fancier.

Runnyeyes - yes, I use a Tesco standard strong cheddar, no need for anything fancy. I really fancy baking them, but in this hot weather I am not sure I have the stamina. Plus the quantity I usually bake means I need to take some into work so we don't put on a stone in a week ;-)

A colleague posted a recipe for Staffordshire oatcakes on Facebork the other day. Might have a go at some point, but perhaps more a recipe for people who don't have easy access to them from the shops.

Quimby - if you cut then freeze the scones they are edible straight from the freezer with about a 30 second blast in the microwave. Not as good as fresh from the oven but handy to have as a standby.

I love oatcakes. I've made them before using a hairy bikers recipe.

I didn't try Staffordshire oatcakes til I was 20 on account of my father disapproving because they were from the potteries.
