They were good scones, they may need more liquid than the recipe suggests. They are good for making breakfast and are good to eat. They could do with some cheese to add more flavour and unhealthiness. But I liked them very much. I am 12 years old.

So delicious! I made a double batch. I might have messed up my flour measurements as the mixture was very wet, so I just kept adding flour until it was a dough consistency. The scones were huge and so fluffy.

The melted butter hack is a game changer and doesn't compromise on taste or texture! I added dates (omitted the sugar) and they were perfect

I love this recipe as the scones always turn out perfect and they are so easy to make. For cheese scones, add cheese to mixture and then cheese on top.

Great recipe. Turns out good every time. Thanks for sharing!
Put oven settings to fan bake and put the oven on its hottest temperature.
Grease an oven tray. In a large bowl, sift the flour and optional sugar.
In a microwave safe bowl, melt butter and allow to cool. Add milk to butter once cooled.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry until it is nice and moist.
Tip out onto a floured bench and form into a 'round'. Carefully lift and place onto baking tray (a dough scraper helps) and cut into wedges (leave with sides touching - scones will pull apart after baking). Alternatively, use a cookie cutter or knife to cut into rounds or squares.
Turn oven down to 200°C still on fan bake.
Bake for around 15 minutes or until golden and test by sticking a knife in the centre of the scone. This should come out clean if cooked.
For sultana scones add ½ cup of sultanas to flour.
They were good scones, they may need more liquid than the recipe suggests. They are good for making breakfast and are good to eat. They could do with some cheese to add more flavour and unhealthiness. But I liked them very much. I am 12 years old.
