3oz of baking powder is a lot is it correct?
this recipe was amazing, everyone that I made it for went absolutely nuts for it. I recknonize the method of rubbing the butter and other ingredients together from my own mother. And I also recknonize the amount of baking powder, as I have also used that much when I have baked something very similar as well.
Thank you for sharing this recipe and putting it on film
Love the video!….cosy place…awesome scones.
I just tried to make those for the first time and did everything as Jackie says but my mixture became so wet I had to add more flour. Does anyone know why? There is a slim possibility I put less flour than I had to because of the measuring cup, but I’m not sure. Please help!
I used a slight less amount of milk. I’m in Canada and the conversion would work out to 3.75 cups of milk. I added the milk slowly until I got a nice big flakey texture. Then the raisins. I made 12 and they sold the same day at my work place. Very happy to find her on YouTube - GREAT work!!
When do you put in the salt?
