Syn free scones

Syn free scones
DISCLAIMER
THIS VIDEO IS VERY OLD. SLIMMING WORLD IS DIFFERENT NOW AND THESE ARE CONSIDERED A TWEAK. HOWEVER I DIDN'T COUNT THEM AS SINS AND STILL LOST WEIGHT EACH WEEK, THE CHOICE IS YOURS.
I can't remember how long I cooked them for or what temp. I would try 180° for 15 - 20 mins and keep checking.
Sorry I can't help you any more. It's an old video, I don't do slimming world anymore and I don't make or eat these anymore.
Please can the slimming world police refrain from commenting.

hi Roxy thanxs for showing me how to make these i used cottage chease with chives or pineapple was realy nice .i used an icecream scoop witch makes them all the same size an eazy to make xx

[@TheRivetts]

What a great recipe, thank you for sharing, a good alternative for an american biscuit, I'm going to try them.

[@patriciamcevoy1142]

They look lovely well done ❤

[@tftlred5454]

Nice! Will try these soon 👍

[@sparkandflame]

These would go well as alternative to dumplings for stew! Add some rosemary and salt and pepper to the mix. Yum! ❤❤

[@roxieknights197]

Great idea x

[@Carolyneanne]

I was thinking that too be nice for beef cobler

[@ukchristian28]

I am afraid these scones are actually about 10 syns each because they are a tweak. You're using a free food in place of a high syn ingredient (flour). You need to give the same syn value to the smash as you would give to the flour.

[@roxieknights197]

@@ukchristian28 yes I speak in the video about how some people believe they are sins. The video is over 4 years old and slimming world is different now but I ate these, didn't count them as sins and still lost weight every week... So hopefully still worth doing for some people.

[@ukchristian28]

@@roxieknights197 That's great. I love to hear about people being successful with their weight loss. I suppose one way of looking at things like this is that by using smash instead of flour you are reducing the calories. So if you ate as many as you would usually and not overeat, that's going to help with weight loss. Maybe I'll have a go at making some of these scones sometime.

[@angelanewsham5059]

Ooo so gonna make these. Thanks for sharing Roxie x

[@SF-ru3lp]

Thank you for these! G Ire

[@frazermowat8069]

Hi Roxie. I made these today, they turned out very nice & delicious. Thank You for the nice recipe. 😊 😊

[@roxieknights197]

+Frazer Mowat great I’m so pleased x

[@magdaallison8263]

I think you have to syn the potato now...they look good but I would perhaps make them smaller,

[@katehillier1027]

No melted butter used as strategy to reduce fat.

[@naseemakhan8533]

Nice scones x

[@SA-gk7xr]

Hi Look nice but a very slow video.. Hardly any talking, but taken so long to bring mixture together to make 5 scones.. No oven temperature or time specified...

[@itsmeglynny8670]

amazing, these look so tasty, will def be making these, i might even make something similar on on my channel as my alter ego Syn-dy 😀

[@Fee212]

Thank you for your ingenuity and for posting. l look forward to making them. Was it 130 or 150g of potatoes please?

[@roxieknights197]

Sorry it’s an old video I can’t remember , at a guess I’d say 130

[@Fee212]

After your reply I watched again with the volume way up. l think you said 107g. Does that sound about right?

[@roxieknights197]

Yes it does! I think that’s how much each packet weighed x

[@Fee212]

Thanks for your feedbac on my questions. Much appreciated.

[@veraallan6768]

Will be trying them thank you

[@georgelippitt7362]

My missus loves them happy wife happy life. Thanks Scotty

+George lippitt so pleased George !

[@rosemaryhamilton7428]

Weighs and cooking time would have been nice and oven temp . But I suppose we can wing it and hope

[@roxieknights197]

The info is in description 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@Blackout975-b9m]

Must be Low Fat or Fat Free Cottage Cheese to be syn free, Smash is also not syn free. Perhaps it was different 7 years ago but heads up slimmers, these are definitely not syn free! Although a wonderful idea and quite possibly well worth the syns!

[@kazbaz8645]

Yum. Can clotted cream be taken off a healthy dairy allowance?

[@tinacape2326]

Nice

[@angieblunt4422]

The lot would be 3 syns!

[@katehillier1027]

At least you can carb load jolly healthy and fattening.

[@Elfdaughter]

I know this is old, but for anyone coming to this video now, official guidlines clearly state that you must now syn 'tweaks' like this - so you'd have to syn the Smash - 4.5 syns for every 25g of dry powdered mash. Roxie uses 107g, so that means that these work out to about 4 syns each (providing you make 5 equal)

[@roxieknights197]

+Elfdaughter yes it's a very old video and does not comply with new slimming world rules.

[@Equinox1.5]

I just looked up Syns Online and Original Smash is 3 syns per 100g when made up as directed. 107g is barely over that, so surely the whole batch of scones would only equate to 3 syns (less than 1 syn each), assuming that the dairy product used is free?

[@anni50ful]

My consultant said smash is a tweek so be careful ❤

[@roxieknights197]

[@juneheron2447]

What gas or electric setting do you cook these on and for how long please x

[@roxieknights197]

I say how long for an electric oven in the video.

[@alinadine81]

What cooking temp and how long

[@Stephanie1975_sw]

How long did you bake them for & what temperature please x

[@roxieknights197]

This is a very old video so I couldn't tell you off the top of my head but I think I state that info verbally in the video x

[@irishsoapfan]

Baking time & temperature were not given in this video

[@irishsoapfan]

Actually guidelines for baking time & temperature given in video description 👍

[@lottiehill3040]

I love the look of your scones but I have listened and watched twice to your video and you do not mention the oven temperature or how long they should be in thank you

[@susanjones2049]

yes how long and what temp.!!

[@arthidiana5078]

can these be made with fresh potatoes

[@Tina28134]

In the country I live they don’t have Smash so what I can use instead please thanks in advance

[@roxieknights197]

Sorry I have no idea ... instant mash of some kind?

[@wendywilliams1106]

Now finding this video.does anyone know what gas mark they cook on pleasr

[@chrissing64]

Wouldn't these be seen as a tweak. One because your using mash potato powder like flour so they would be synable. Also slimming world now syn mash potato, so unfortunately one way or the other scones are syned. I've made them and they are lovely , your video is really well made and detailed. 👍👍👍

[@roxieknights197]

Chris Singer yes they are likely a tweak - as I said in the video there is controversy surrounding them.

[@chrissing64]

@@roxieknights197 it wasn't a critical I noticed the video was a little older before the changes that's all. But still a great video

[@turloughgirl5535]

Chris Singer What is wrong with you? She stated, from the onset, that this recipe is debatable as to its syn values. The most distressing thing about Slimming World is the ‘tweak police’ who trawl recipe videos such as these to act haughty and demand syn values given to recipes who have either no Syns or one syn at best. It’s a delicious recipe and as a slimming world devotee I’m sure you know how many Syns you are allowed per day? So why are you here moaning?

[@chrissing64]

@@turloughgirl5535 why don't you just do one luv no one asked you for your advice. I've already stated it's a nice recipe and that i may have missed something. So go and find your self some ironing to do. Luv and kisses

[@ukchristian28]

@@turloughgirl5535 The "tweak police" are likely concerned members who are just trying to look out for others. There is a very real danger with tweaks. They can lead to people over indulging on things because they think they are "free." That can threaten people's weight loss. I am not saying that people shouldn't follow this recipe, because it does look good, but we should help people to safeguard against any potential pitfalls.

What do up put in them

Syns are Sins?!

Correct, I made a spelling error. Sorry that this apparently offends you.

No idea, but this video is years old, I’m no longer on slimming world and no longer make or eat them.

An utter abomination and not scones at all. No doubt some disgusting margarine low sugar flavourless sugar filled low fruit jam and some manufactured processed abomination posing as a rich filling tasty organic grass fed cream.

[@roxieknights197]

This video is over four years old. I now no longer do slimming world. I didn’t however use any sugar or jam or cream in this recipe. I’m not really sure what you’re talking about or what point you are trying to make.
