Clean on! Those scones look amazing. Definitely new and improved 😍😋 I hope you are doing well, Gemma😁

[@biggerbolderbaking]

Wonderful to hear from you, Jonny! The grated butter is definitely a game changer. Thanks so much for being with us, and hope you are doing just as well! Happy St. Patrick's Day :)

[@InTheKitchenWithJonny]

Gemma Stafford ❤️❤️❤️ Happy St Patrick day😁

[@DP-nh9ky]

please make vanilla ice cream and I liked your videos

[@ashiali2050]

I'm from Pakistan this recipe is very nice inshaAllah I will make it for my kids school lunch boxes

[@sophiemorrison9820]

i have used the same method for scones for years. what i found is that as much as i liked making scones i would sometimes put it off or change plans because grating frozen butter annoyed me. so that i can more quickly make a batch, i grate from-the-fridge sticks of butter, usually four. i freeze each grated stick individually so that the process comes together faster when the family gets a craving for scones.

[@biggerbolderbaking]

Great tip, Sophie :) Absolutely great way to speed up the process

[@nokm2006]

What a great idea

[@shugardiski9480]

wow!!! i dont know whether to dance or climb a tree, they look sublime!!

[@biggerbolderbaking]

I'm delighted that you loved them. Give the scones a go!

[@98maxb]

Hi Gemma! I've just took out of the oven my first scones ever: they're gorgeous. The smell in my kitchen would make even a rock hungry! Thanks a lot for your great recipe, 100% "best ever"!

Gemma's best ever recipe before bedtime.(It's half past 11PM right now in Taiwan.) I'm definitly in heaven now.

[@biggerbolderbaking]

Thrilled you're staying up with us! :)

[@susanreedy29]

I don't know how you could improve on the original because they were fantastic, but these are making my stomach growl! I grated the butter just like you showed with your original scones, it's genius!💖☘☘☘

[@biggerbolderbaking]

You'll love these, Susan! Well done. I hope you give these a go :)

[@Nina5144]

Really no need to grate butter! By rubbing in the butter/spead the taste is mixed throughout the dough.

[@lizmc.1031]

Besides my family, scones are what I miss the most about Northern Ireland! I have tried several recipes and they have never lived up to the true “Irish” scone taste. This recipe most certainly did! Thank you!! As well, your direction and tip were dead on. I’m an instant fan and have now subscribed to your channel. I look forward to binge watching your vlogs. Haha

[@biggerbolderbaking]

Thanks a million!

[@fidelmavdvdoshea1021]

G4teudsgafwtwh

[@제정은-f7j]

I don't have a grater, but I used my food processor to pulse the butter and flour. It turned out perfect!

[@biggerbolderbaking]

Great idea! Well done :)

[@lizze8262]

I also use my food processor, as I've never liked rubbing butter into flour. In addition, if am making plain scones I add most of the liquid and carefully pulse until the dough just comes together. The whole process is so fast I usually end making two or three batches. So lots of light and fluffy scones for freezing! Yum-yum!!

[@doloresdonaghy4966]

Happy St Patricks Day..i just tooked these out of the oven..Oh Gemma Thank you so much These are magnificent Will be making these A Lot! God bless 💚👵

[@biggerbolderbaking]

Happy St Paddy's Day to you too! Well done!

[@summerrose1545]

Okay I have a ques. Is it sconn or scown? I grew up saying scown but as an adult people have told me I was saying it wrong all those time and corrected me with sconn. I googled few years back and seemed like at the time, everyone and their mother, on the net, came with pretty much the same consensus, should be pronounced as sconn. And here my beloved master baker Gemma is saying it the way I said it as a kid. So, which is the correct pronunciation?

[@biggerbolderbaking]

Hmm I've only ever pronounced it "scown" myself

[@antoninajucovscaia8439]

I was so tempted to buy scones with cranberries today, but I thought there were too expensive and I can make them myself. I come home and what do I see? New scones recipe from Gemma! Love it!!!!!

[@biggerbolderbaking]

I hope you give them a go, Antonina :) Happy St. Patrick's Day!

[@mehdiachouri]

I've been living in Ireland for the past 20 years... This lady has super concentration of Irishness in her. I just had a bone graft in my mouth and she made me laugh so painfully...

[@Xemwood]

And there was me thinking I was alone in absolutely hating washing pastry brushes - I can’t believe I missed this solution!

[@fatsaj]

So i have my finals this summer ... once i'm done with those,i'll DEFINITELY get baking,you've been such an inspiration Gemma and it reallllyyyyy makes me grow up to be a successful baker! :) Just like you.

[@amycastrillon851]

Also could you maybe do a video on food's from other countries? I think that would be lots of fun. And thank you for that advice ! Very helpful thank you!♥️

[@jjmuskitta]

Hi Gemma, my husband and I have never eaten scones, so we thought we'd give it a try with scones I bought at the supermarket. Well, lets just say we were not enthusiastic about them. So I tried your recipe and wow they are delicious! My husband came home from work as I took the scones out of the oven, so he could dig in immediately! He loved them and said that it adding nything to it like jam or butter was necessary: they were fluffy (not too fluffy), sweet but not too sweet and the toplayer was crunchy because of the milk/egg trick you showed us! Thank you very much, Gemma. I am on to more bigger and bolder baking!

[@biggerbolderbaking]

Glad you enjoyed this recipe!

[@jillianlookenott2563]

Love hearing about your childhood! Also love learning about Irish cuisine. Would love to see more of that.

[@biggerbolderbaking]

I have a few Irish recipes on BiggerBolderBaking.com :) Thrilled to have you with us!

[@ima7333]

Hi, Gemma. I absolutely love scones with my earl grey tea. Will try that trick of freezing the cut out scones. How long do you think they’ll keep in the freezer?

[@MsAcpaul]

What an interesting scone recipe.... A tip I know with making scones. Do not twist the cutter as you cut the scones. Just press in and out. For some reason scones rise more doing this and are even fluffier as you are not working the dough more.

[@biggerbolderbaking]

Great tip! Thank you :)

[@fatimaamorim6054]

Olá Gemma!!! I am soooooooo happy that your Crazy Dough recipe for cheese bread was the first very time that I baked a bread and worked very well!!! Thank you sooooooo much!! I am very bad at backing and I feel soooooo proud!!! Thank you soooooo much!!! You make baking seams easy 😘

hi gemma, as a brit who grew up on a dairy farm in somerset i do understand what you say about good butter. i live in nz now and if you can get it try nz butter!!! it is absolutely decadent lol.

[@biggerbolderbaking]

Thanks for sharing. I heard you have good butter over there.

[@nicolawalton3754]

I love savory cheese scones (but I usually omit the mustard most recipes suggest) especially if they have extra cheese sprinkled on top before baking.

Sounds yummy, Nicola. You might enjoy my Pizza Scones actually! www.biggerbolderbaking.com/pizza-scones/

[@elizabethdiblasio7825]

Hello Gemma! I enjoyed watching you preparing these delicious- looking- Scones - They look yummy! You are a professional baker- and so, I am just wondering ....... you are wearing a ring while preparing this dough - Your hands ought to be free of jewellery ! Why? When washing your hands, soap residue can stick to the ring! Also, your long hair ought to be tied.. lest a hair could easily fall in your dough! You have very long hair! ❤ Every cook ought to wear a net or a hat! In Hotels and fine restaurants Chefs always wear a Chef's Hat! Just my observation!

[@biggerbolderbaking]

Hi. Glad that you enjoyed the recipe. Like most people at home, I just get on with it. I am not selling the food I make here, but if I were, it would be a different story. Thanks for being here.

Found out I’m Irish on both sides and now I know why St. Patrick’s Day has always meant a lot to me. I’ll be celebrating this year by attending a local Parade and making Corned Beef and Cabbage (as I do every year) and now these Scones. Absolutely perfect! Happy St. Patrick’s Day 💚! Thank you for all these beautiful videos.

Why don't you just do flour and baking powder. Traditional is made with traditional ingredients. and in the time you spent explaining the self raising flour you could have given the proportions. I see people doing that I just turn off the video

[@biggerbolderbaking]

It takes too much out of the flow of the presentation, and really slows it down. We know, we tried it before, and it was just as tricky. We put the link to the recipe right by the video for your convenience. I hope this helps www.biggerbolderbaking.com/best-ever-irish-scones/

The baking powder adds more leavening, but do not worry as this works well with the self-rising flour

Ah Gemma you used a knife on a fresh scone, thats a sin. Always break the scone open with your hands when its fresh out of the oven. 😁

[@celestediaz442]

I’m a little lost here... on the recipe it says 4 cups and 2/3. --> or 680 grams. But 4 cups is 1kilogram so Im confused about witch one is correct :$ a little help here! I’m already doing it but I don’t know if taking off some flour or not 🙈

[@nigelriley5538]

Recipes do vary. Scones are quite forgiving, go for a slightly sticky dough. Modern Europeans are confused by cups! And a few Americans don't seem to have scales!

Hi Celeste. I use the American standard for measurement in baking. 1 cup would be equivalent to 142g for AP flour.

Please try soaking your raisins/sultanas etc in hot tea. It stops them burning or drying out.

Hi Gemma, I tried making them and they turned out absolutely perfect! Hv tried many scones recipes in the past and they always turned out rock hard or failed to rise for some reason. Your irish scone recipe is a keeper. Thank you for sharing it.
