This week's pick has done absolutely nothing to clear up my confusion about the difference between biscuits and scones. The recipe for these Sweet Cream Biscuits is all but identical to the cream scones I have made since I was little.Still, whatever you call them they are certainly tasty and one of my favourite things to eat. Whenever I go out for coffee, while the others have a big piece of cake, I always get a sultana scone with jam and cream. Yum!
As usual (I really don't have 'the touch') my biscuits were pretty flat and crumbly but they had a lovely flavour. Perfect with a smear of butter and a big dollop of strawberry jam.
Thanks to Melissa of Love at First Bite for this week's pick. They were easy, tasty and inexpensive. And will definitely be made again :-)
(Yep this post is even shorter than usual but I'm worn out after a big weekend. Check out Oscar's 1st birthday celebrations here!)
Beautiful! I loved these. So simple to make and so delicious. :)
ReplyDeletei loved how these were so quick and easy too!
ReplyDeletenot every day we have a recipe that the longest step is letting the oven get to 425 degrees :).
i topped mine with agave peach raspberry jam and loved them!
Good to hear that other people, too, have the scones-biscuit-confusion. Up to now I had the feeling that scones mostly include eggs, and that it is much about the shape, but I might be wrong.
ReplyDeleteYour crust looks so good. Almost like a sugar cookie.
ReplyDeleteJust read the birthday post! Hope you are recovering nicely. The biscuits are lovely.
ReplyDeleteThese look so good! I always thought scones had more sugar than biscuits? Whatever, I like them both and yours look extra yummy.
ReplyDeleteBiscuits are supposed to be fluffy and bread like but soft on the inside and firm on the outside, not like a scone at all. But I've had many biscuits turn out like scones so I can see the dilemma :)
ReplyDeleteThey look delicious either way :)
They look great! Glad you liked them so well! :)
ReplyDeleteI think they look super good! I had mine with jam too and made them with buttermilk instead of cream. They were so yummy!
ReplyDeleteI went savoury with mine. Now I want to make them again, so I can have a dollop of jam. Lovely photos!
ReplyDeleteI didn't have a very light touch either. But they were tasty! :)
ReplyDeleteso pretty im sure these are great. im going to try this out now :-)
ReplyDeleteThese are all really great tips to consider, sometimes people don’t think about something like this. Thanks for this post!
