Name: English Scones
Ingredients: 2 c All-purpose flour; 2 ts Baking powder; 1/2 ts Salt; 1/4 c Butter; 3/4 c Buttermilk

The best Christian has not always a joyous day. Our sins make sorrows needful – our lack of watchfulness may bring disquietude and doubt, and, instead of “rejoicing in the Lord,” our hearts may be filled with despondency and gloom. Christian! if you have not this joy “abiding” in you now, you have cause for alarm; for, be assured, it is suspended, not from any lack of love on the part of your Savior, nor from any forgetfulness of you by the Holy Spirit, but, because you yourself have become less watchful, in guarding the citadel of the heart.

Hot Scones, served as soon as they are removed from the oven, are an
English specialty. Serve with butter or marmalade or jam.
In large bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Add butter. Combine
with your fingers, a wooden sppon, or a pastry belnder until coarse crumbs
form. Add buttermilk. Quickly stir to form a dough. Divide dough in half.
Form each half into a ball. Flatten to a round. Place on lightly greased
baking sheet. Cut each crosswise into 4 pieces but not all the way through.
Bake at 425 degrees for 10-15 minutes. Serve Hot! Makes 8 scones.
NOTE: You may substitute whole wheat flour for half of all-purpose flour.
For a golden crust, brush scones before baking with beaten egg and sprinkle
with brown sugar. Regular milk can be substituted for buttermilk.
Buttermilk makes scones more tender and moist.
