Traditional Cheese Scones

Although scones come in plain or fruit varieties, cheese scones are especially tasty. This video shows you how to make English cheese scones which are wonderful served at teatime, split in half and buttered. Scones are deliciously dense and flavourful and their texture is what distinguishes them from other savoury teatime treats.

Serve them warm from the oven for a real treat. Fruit scones usually feature sultanas or raisins while plain scones are plain. Cheese scones can be made with Cheddar cheese or another type, and they are nice spiced up with the addition of some mustard or paprika to enhance their flavour.

Scones are a favourite at teatime, served perhaps with finger sandwiches and dainty little cakes, and of course a pot of your favourite tea. Making scones is very easy and all you need are the ingredients and an oven. Serve them warm or let them cool down. Scones will keep in an airtight container for a couple of days but these are so yummy you probably will not have any left after your afternoon tea party.
