  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the scones tough.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the scones rise evenly.
  • Bake the scones until they are golden brown. Overbaking will make the scones dry.
  • Serve the scones warm. Scones are best served warm out of the oven, but they can also be served at room temperature.
