Cheat Scones

If you have an unexpected visitor drop by for a few minutes and want to impress them when you offer them a cuppa, keep this EASY recipe handy. It is so easy that I'd call it assembling rather than cooking! Best of all, they contain only 3 ingredients that most of us all have in the pantry. It would also be a great introduction to cooking for children.

CHEAT SCONES

Get your ingredients: 3 cups self-raising flour, 1 cup lemonade (brand does not matter), 1 cup cream.

Gently combine - avoid overmixing to keep all the fizzy bubbles in your dough.

Turn out onto a floured surface and briefly knead.

 Using a round cookie cutter, cut out your scones and place on a lined baking tray.

 Bake at 200 C for 10 minutes or so - when they are the colour of your liking.

 Whipped cream and jam is a MUST
