What would any afternoon tea be without traditional scones? These buttery little treats are so easy and quick to make, they’re a real delight. Just make sure to be gentle with the dough! Knead the dough like a bread or pizza dough and you’re doomed. You will want these scones to be lights and crumbly, so leave the frustration kneading for another dough that requires some tough love.

Watch me make these cranberry scones in my TV show here.
