  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the scones tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough helps to develop the flavor and makes it easier to roll out.
  • Bake the scones at a high temperature: A high oven temperature helps to create a crispy exterior and a fluffy interior.
  • Don't overbake the scones: Overbaking the scones will make them dry. Bake them just until they are golden brown on top.
