There is a particular kind of afternoon that calls for a warm scone. Nothing complicated, nothing that requires planning or preparation or sourcing twelve ingredients on a Wednesday. Just flour, a little warmth, and something that comes out of the oven smelling exactly like it should. Grandma’s Pantry Buttermilk Scone Pre-mix is that afternoon made easy. Everything you need for a batch of beautifully risen, golden-topped, tender buttermilk scones is already measured and blended, so all that stands between you and a proper scone is a mixing bowl and about twenty minutes. The kind of bake Grandma did without thinking twice and that we are quietly delighted to put back within reach. The full recipe is available in the Recipes section of the Grandma’s Pantry Online website.
A beautifully light, tender scone with a golden crust and a soft, fluffy crumb that pulls apart cleanly and holds its shape without being dense or dry. The non-fat milk powder gives the dough a subtle, rounded dairy richness that bakes into a classic buttermilk flavour without requiring fresh buttermilk on hand, and the baking powder blend ensures a reliable, even rise every single time. The kind of scone that makes people ask which bakery you went to and genuinely means it as a compliment.
Follow the simple instructions on the packaging to bring your dough together. The full step by step recipe is available in the Recipes section of the Grandma’s Pantry Online website. The golden rule with scones applies here as it does everywhere: handle the dough as little as possible, use a sharp cutter pressed straight down without twisting, and resist the temptation to open the oven door early. The patience is worth it every single time.
The Classic Cream Tea approach of a warm scone split open, spread with a generous layer of good cultured butter or clotted cream, and topped with a spoonful of Pepe Saya Lemon Curd or Passionfruit Curd is the one that requires no further argument. A simple Butter and Jam Scone with a good fruit preserve alongside a pot of tea is the quintessential afternoon tea that never needs updating. Use them as the base for a Savoury Scone variation by reducing the sugar and adding grated cheddar and chives before baking for a version that belongs alongside a bowl of soup. Serve warm from the oven alongside a cheese board for a beautiful alternative to crackers, or split and toast the next day with butter and honey for a breakfast that makes everything feel a little more considered.
