Delicious with a high tea, but also a special homemade gift for your Valentine: Scones with strawberries. With creamy unsweetened whipped cream, strawberry jam, and fresh strawberries. Served with tea, but also really delicious with coffee.
- Make sure you preheated your oven. And also that your dough is really cold. That way your scones become airy and creamy.
- Don't turn the cutter too much, as this will close the layers of dough.
- For a vegan version, replace the butter with vegan margarine and the milk with soy milk. Substitute whipped cream with soy whipped cream. It will be a slightly different flavor (but still delicious).
- You can use any other soft fruit as a substitute for the strawberries. This recipe is also super with blackberries, currants, and raspberries.
Storage
- You can't store scones, so make sure you'll eat them right away.
