Do you need a food processor to make scones?

My recipe says so, but i'm reluctant to go out and spend on one.

no way!

No. We never used ours. I just get dd1 to do the messy bits.

god no

mrs beeton never had one i'm sure.

just rub the butter into the flour with your fingers til it looks like breadcrumbs

will do, thanks

nope.

When rubbing make sure you only use your fingers your palms should have no mix on them at all.

I use a fork to mash the butter in. I thought it stands to reason since a fork is cold and you don't want too much heat on the fat ... Always works.

No.
