this isn't your average scone,
made with no butter and spiced with an earl grey tone,
it's a simple whip-up that taste pretty good alone...
& easy enough for you to bake your own!

How was it?
like the name of this bake suggests...these scones turned out nice, fluffy and slightly bread-like. could have more flavour. a pretty easy bake.
Better it up!
add a pinch of salt and/or some dried cranberries to scones, may want to drizzle some glaze over as well. to whip up earl grey chantilly cream instead.
The Verdict
