I love a good scone. With butter, jam, cream or just on their own but I cannot, for the life of me, make a decent one.
I am a decent baker. My sponge cakes are always good, as are my biscuits. My brownies are a thing of beauty. But alas, the simple fruit scone is beyond me.
They are always to heavy, too hard and crumbly and could possibly be useful for holding down small children in high winds.
So please, clever people of mumsnet, tell me how to make a decent scone.
