Please settle an argument with DP and I

When having a scone do you put the jam on first and then the cream, or the cream on first and then the jam?

And do you pronounce scone like “Scoan” or ”Scon”?

Chocolate scones are nice too but entirely different experience.

INGREDIENTS
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cold
1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
2/3 cup heavy cream
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F, and a line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the flour, cocoa, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl and whisk to combine.
Using a pastry blender, cut in the butter until the pieces are pea-sized.
Add the chocolate chips.
Stir the cream, egg, and vanilla together in a liquid measuring cup.
Pour into the dry ingredients, and stir/knead together just until the dough gathers itself into a ball.
Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet, and flatten it to a thickness of about 1 1/2-inch.
Score into 6 equal wedges, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until set.

@jen i’d prefer a plain scone personally as not a huge fan of sultanas or raisins. If it was all that was on offer then i’d still demolish it in 2 bites though

Jam then cream on a scone (rhyme with bone) 😁

and cheese scones are even nicer with chilli added and onion too

Scon, jam then cream, dp and me.

Homemade 'scoan' must include butter, jam (preferably seedless raspberry) & whipped double cream 😋
Or
'Scoan' with butter, strawberry jam, whipped double cream & fresh strawberries on top!

My mouth's watering now…

@acatsnohelpwiththat it bugs me too. My English teacher always said if it makes sense when you take the other person out, you got it right.
Can you settle an argument between (DP and) I doesn't make sense im a dick too

Scoan

Butter
jam
cream

So why isn’t Scone Palace pronounced scon or scoan. And if you where in the tea room 5here would you ask for a scon or scoan or scoon and would you put jam on first. Just wondering like.

JAM FIRST!!!

Scon

And wtf I’d kosher salt and is it diferent

Butter then jam, no cream hi don’t like cream)

And scoan to rhyme with phone, cone, lone, bone, drone, atone...

Just butter and its scone to rhyme with gone

OverTheHedgeSammy, I don't mind seedy (you can put your own joke/insult in here ).

PS cheese scones with sweet chilli jam OH MY WORD

Seedless Raspberry Jam and plain Scones.

Scon.
Cream first, it acts as the butter IMO.

Raspberry jam.

Bangs gavel.

what happens when you turn the scone upside down?

Cream, jam. Proncouced scoan the right way

To me, jam needs a flat surface to be spread properly so it makes sense to put the jam first and then the cream.

I really want a scone now.

It's got to be 'scon' - it's the fastest cake in the world!!

Normally butter, jam, cream. Otherwise cream, jam, cream if no butter. And "scon"

Can I interject here please, no no no to raspberry jam, it has to be strawberry

Jam
Cream
Scoan

Although it's more usually

Nothing cos DD has nicked and eaten the lot😁

He does do jam then cream though

Actually my DS is the one who scoffs them.

And raspberry jam over strawberry
