SODA SCONES by Granny Lynch of
Govan.
Quick to make if you have unexpected visitors
2 cupfuls of plain flour
1 teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda
1 teaspoon of cream of tartar
1 teaspoon of salt
Mix all ingredients together, add old milk to
make a nice dough and flatten out in a circle ½ inch thick and mark out
slightly with a knife like cake slices. Heat a girdle or frying pan and
flick some flour on, when flour turns brown clean off and put the scone on
for two to three minutes, lift up with a knife to see if nicely brown then
turn over, give a little pat and brown the same as first side. Granny's
words "they sure will be good".
Can be served hot or cold with butter jam and
cream..
