This recipe comes from Instructables, modified by what I did. It only makes half-a-dozen so it is good when there is only a few people. My lemonade scones recipe makes a much larger amount.

Ingredients

• 4 cups self-raising flour (I use standard flour plus baking powder)
• 1 can lemonade (330ml)
• 1 bottle cream (300ml)
• Pinch of salt (always when using flour)

Note: There is no need to add extra sugar to scones.

Method

1. Pre-heat oven to 220°C.
2. Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl to form a soft dough.
3. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead into a squarish shape, about 2cm thick.
4. Cut into size and place together on an ungreased baking tray. (I used baking paper.)
5. Bake for 10 - 15 minutes, until top is browned.

Enjoy with cream or jam.
