A lovely sunny Sunday morning baking session today,
listening to good music and making some simple free-form scones. The buttermilk in these makes the batter quite
moist (hence deciding to dollop the mixture onto the baking trays rather than
roll out and cut with a pastry cutter) and the fresh blackberries give them a
fantastic juicy sweetness that means you don’t need to serve them with jam
(unless you’re a sugar fiend like me and just can’t resist) – just stick to
lashings of clotted cream! (The healthy
eating is clearly going great guns…)
