Buttermilk Scones image

I got the recipe for this in Julian, California when my boyfriend and I went to Julian Tea and Cottage Arts for lunch. They serve these delicious scones with whipped cream and raspberry preserves. The recipe is quite heavy on the butter but it makes for very tender and moist scones. I did not have a food processor so I just ground the butter into the flour using an egg whisk, which worked out fine. You may need more flour than what is listed, I did. Rather than rolling them out I simply dropped them by hand onto greased baking sheets. Enjoy.

These scones were a bit dry for my taste. I think I may have overbaked them. But the flavor was good.

I've made these scones several times now and they always turn out great. They're so easy to make and they're always a hit with my family and friends.

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

I made these scones with chocolate chips and they were amazing! The chocolate chips added a nice sweetness and richness to the scones.

These scones were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time I make them.

I've tried many different scone recipes, but these are by far my favorite. They're so light and fluffy, and the buttermilk gives them a slightly tangy flavor that I love.

I made these scones with gluten-free flour and they turned out great! They were a little bit more dense than regular scones, but they were still very good.
