Grandma Johnson's Scones Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by รก-24374

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon baking soda
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter
1 egg
1 cup optional "flavor" (raisins, dried cranberry, cinnamon chips, etc.)
Raw sugar

Steps:

  • 1. In a small bowl, blend the sour cream and baking soda, and set aside. 2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a large baking sheet. 3. In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, cream of tartar, and salt. 4. Cut in the butter. 5. Stir the sour cream mixture and egg into the flour mixture until just moistened. Do not over-work the dough. 6. Mix in optional flavor ingredient. 7. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead briefly until dough sticks together. Halve the dough and roll or pat dough into a 1/2" to 3/4" thick round. 8. Dust raw sugar across top of dough round and then cut into wedges. 9. Place wedges 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet (if you don't want to cook them right away, you can individually wrap each wedge in plastic wrap and freeze for later use; they can be cooked straight from the freezer about 30 mins). 10. Bake approx 15-20 minutes in the preheated oven, until light golden brown

5 stars! These scones are delicious. I love the way the cinnamon and sugar topping caramelizes in the oven.

These scones are AMAZING! I've made them three times in the past week. They're so easy to make and they're always a hit with my family and friends.

These scones were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I'm not a huge fan of scones, but these were actually pretty good! The texture was nice and the flavor was subtle but satisfying.

These scones are the perfect comfort food! They're warm, fluffy, and have just the right amount of sweetness. I love to serve them with a cup of tea on a cold day.

Not bad, but not the best scones I've ever had. The texture was a bit dry and the flavor was a bit bland. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

Easy to make and delicious! I added some dried cranberries and walnuts for extra flavor. My family loved them!

These scones were a delightful treat! The texture was perfect, with a crisp exterior and a soft, fluffy interior. The flavor was also spot-on, with just the right amount of sweetness and a hint of cinnamon. I'll definitely be making these again!
